Danone Institute

After over 30 years of history, THE DANONE INSTITUTE BEGINS A NEW CHAPTER IN 2025 TO REFRAME THE NARRATIVE OF AGEING After more than 30 years of advancing knowledge in food and nutrition, Danone Institute is proud to open a new chapter, one that builds on its rich legacy and looks ahead with renewed ambition. This new phase is dedicated to closing food and nutrition gaps to foster healthy ageing across the lifespan. THE DANONE INSTITUTE IS COMMITTED TO BRIDGING FOOD AND NUTRITION GAPS IN ADULTS TO ADD YEARS TO HEALTH. From infancy through childhood and during medical conditions, NUTRITIONAL NEEDS ARE CAREFULLY MONITORED As we transition into adulthood, OUR NUTRITIONAL NEEDS CONTINUE TO EVOLVE OVER LIFESPAN This silent evolution during adulthood is often overlooked until health issues emerge, missing key OPPORTUNITIES TO POSITIVELY IMPACT HEALTH THROUGH FOOD AND NUTRITION By uncovering the subtle shifts in adult diet & nutrition, and highlighting the often-overlooked gaps that emerge over time, we can contribute to the development of nutritional strategies that act as powerful levers to extend health-span and support healthy longevity. OUR VISION We believe that food and nutrition can help add years to health for everyone as they age OUR MISSION We mobilize and connect local networks to foster scientific dialogue and research, driving global impact on health span through food and nutrition – at scale OUR RESEARCH We aim to bridge the knowledge-action gap by building consensus around existing science (scientific consolidation e.g. literature reviews, roundtables, conferences) and funding new research through targeted grants and awards. OUR VISION We believe that food and nutrition can help add health to years for everyone as they age OUR MISSION We mobilize and connect local networks to foster scientific dialogue and research, driving global impact on health span through food and nutrition – at scale OUR IMPACT We aim to amplify local research agendas and inform future nutrition and health guidelines to support healthier lifespan.
