Cultivating a resilient future for the food system
From the recent fires in the Amazon to growing discussions around global dietary shifts, it is clear that the food system is at a critical juncture. System transformation is the strongest lever we have to take the worst-case scenario of climate change off the menu and ensure the food system continues to thrive in a resource-constrained world.

To help companies drive and accelerate the transition to a sustainable future for food, Quantis is releasing Dig In, a report-guide covering the top sustainability priorities for the food and beverage sector while providing the landscape of business actions that will cultivate a sustainable food system. Launching on #WorldFoodDay, October 16th, the report will help companies to focus on the topics that matter and to
develop tailored strategies and solutions  that will have the most meaningful impact across their supply chains.

A formidable challenge lies ahead, yet if we get equipped with the understanding and tools, building a resilient food system that optimizes both planetary and human health is mission possible.

Guidance for measuring the benefits of water stewardship
Quantis and our partners at the  World Resources Institute ,  LimnoTech  and  Valuing Nature  have developed a new approach for  implementing and valuing water stewardship activities.  The Volumetric Water Benefit Accounting  (VWBA)  meets a critical need in corporate water stewardship: it provides a common method for assessing the benefits of water stewardship activities in a comparable way and ensuring they address current or projected water challenges and contribute to public policy priorities. 

VWBA empowers companies with a comprehensive, standardized and science-based methodology to calculate and valuate the benefits of water stewardship activities. This new method enables businesses and other key stakeholders to better tackle shared water risks at catchment-scale.
