Food Ethics Council

Who we are

The Food Ethics Council is a registered charity that provides independent advice on the ethics of food and farming. Our aim is to create a food system that is fair and healthy for people, animals and the environment. We work on problems relating to food and farming where the right answer is not obvious.

We promote ethical considerations surrounding food and farming and open up debate on the big issues, such as climate change, obesity and GM crops. We challenge government, business and society to face up to difficult decisions and we provide the tools, research and safe space to enable them to reach practical, considered solutions.
