An organization that promotes the benefits of sustainable, plant-based solutions in response to global food security, health, hunger, and environmental concerns.

That encourages NGOs, think tanks, social justice leaders, and government decision makers to include the benefits of plant-rich diets and reduced global meat consumption in their policies and recommendations.

That provides financial and material assistance to locally-active groups with similar missions, especially in low-income countries.
