Rachel Mazac is a sustainable food systems researcher with a particular focus on sustainable diets, protein alternatives, and critical ecosystems approaches. As a PhD researcher at the University of Helsinki, Mazac works at the nexus of global systems sustainability, agroecology, and food. Mazac’s current research focuses on future diet shifts, investigating the potential of protein alternatives (e.g., novel food production systems, legumes, High Nature Value products) to lessen whole diet impacts on environmental and socio-cultural systems. Food touches us all and we all need to understand the ways we interact with and impact the world around us through food.
