This study investigates how Brazilian universities, in collaboration with governments, industries, and startups, contribute to promoting food sustainability and health in the Global South. The central research question examines how these partnerships address the growing demand for sustainable food and mitigate the impacts of climate change through agroecological practices, the development of plant-based foods, and alternative proteins. The study highlights that the transition to plant-based diets can reduce up to 40% of greenhouse gas emissions in Latin America and the Caribbean. In Brazil, agroecological practices have already resulted in a 40% reduction in the use of chemical fertilizers and a 25% increase in productivity in 3.

This study investigates how Brazilian universities, in collaboration with governments, industries, and startups, contribute to promoting food sustainability and health in the Global South. The central research question examines how these partnerships address the growing demand for sustainable food and mitigate the impacts of climate change through agroecological practices, the development of plant-based foods, and alternative proteins. The study highlights that the transition to plant-based diets can reduce up to 40% of greenhouse gas emissions in Latin America and the Caribbean. In Brazil, agroecological practices have already resulted in a 40% reduction in the use of chemical fertilizers and a 25% increase in productivity in 3.
