Thursday 21 September 2023 from 09:00 to 19:00 - One Monte-Carlo
Sustainable gastronomy summit
Under the High Patronage of H.S.H. Prince Albert II of Monaco, an initiative by Alain Ducasse, in collaboration with the Prince Albert II of Monaco Foundation with the kind support of Moët Hennessy and Société des Bains de Mer.
"A cuisine that is good to think is a cuisine that is good to eat."
Alain Ducasse
Because food production accounts for one-third of greenhouse gas emissions, gastronomy must play a crucial role in addressing ecological and climate disruptions. It is time to change our way of thinking about food and consider it as a means to preserve the planet and its inhabitants.
With the support of Moët Hennessy and the Société des Bains de Mer, this summit will offer a global exploration of the food chain, from our soils and seas to our plates. As the birthplace of history and civilizations, the Mediterranean region is unquestionably the essential host for this Summit.
Floor will be given to agents of change: scientists, producers, committed chefs, schools, future leaders, and young leaders of the ecological transition will share their experiences and innovative solutions.
Mobilization is more than necessary. Taking action, getting involved, and building the gastronomy of the future are the stakes of this Summit. It will conclude with the drafting of the Sustainable Gastronomy Charter, in which culinary school students will participate. And it will be deployed to the entire community.
