Social drivers and barriers for climate-friendly diets
In 2020-2023 the Department of Sociology at the University of Copenhagen and CONCITO have carried out a research and practice project on social driving forces and barriers for climate-friendly diets among young people. This report summarizes the most important research results and impressions from the green conversation dinners.
From 2020-2023 the University of Copenhagen and CONCITO have collaborated on the project "Social driving forces and barriers for climate-friendly food" with support from VELUX FONDEN.
The project consisted of three sub-projects:
- A quantitative survey study with a representative sample of the Danish population on Danes' attitudes towards plant-rich food
- A qualitative study on young Danes' transition to a more plant-rich or plant-based diet, based on interviews, telephone diaries and focus groups
- A change project called "Green conversation dinners" with more than 350 young participants throughout the country.
This report summarizes the key findings and results of the project.
