Access to Nutrition Initiative

The Access to Nutrition Initiative (ATNI) is a global foundation focused on transforming markets to ensure access to healthy diets for all. It actively challenges the food industry, investors, and policymakers to create healthier food systems, aiming for at least half of food and beverage sales from healthy products by 2030. ATNI develops accountability tools and strategies to empower key actors in the food system, particularly the industry, promoting sustainable access to nutritious and affordable foods. Their vision is to achieve a world where markets support healthy diets, contributing to optimal physical and mental health for all, leading to healthier societies. Their mission is to empower food system actors to enhance access to nutritious, affordable, and sustainable diets through data-driven tools, dialogues, and policy support. ATNI prioritizes its independence by not accepting funding from the industry, ensuring neutrality in its rankings. They assess companies regardless of their engagement, promoting accountability through evidence collection, analysis, collaboration, and peer learning. The initiative provides actionable recommendations to companies to improve product healthiness, supports investors with relevant data for health-focused investment decisions, and encourages policymakers to regulate markets effectively when voluntary measures fall short, ultimately influencing business practices to favor nutrition.
