Our Mission: Elevate Food to Improve Life

Food is intrinsic to human, economic, and planetary health; yet rarely comes first in conversations about how to meet today’s challenges. Arrell Food Institute at the University of Guelph exists to elevate food to improve life. We bring people together to conduct research, train the next generation of food leaders and shape social, industrial and governmental decisions, always ensuring food is the central priority.
