Fondazione Barilla is a non-profit scientific research organization, established in 2009 with the aim of studying and analyzing key issues related to food in both the agri-food and scientific sectors. Since then, Fondazione Barilla has promoted responsible behavior and conscious food choices, with the goal of driving meaningful societal change.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Since 2022, Fondazione Barilla has focused its efforts on disseminating the knowledge it has developed over time, helping people understand how the impact of small daily actions can contribute to personal health and environmental protection.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n
