How can great food not only delight us, but also contribute to our health? With the inaugural Global Culinary Medicine Award, PAN International honours chefs and culinary innovators who combine pleasure, creativity, and evidence-informed nutrition in outstanding ways. An international jury recognises concepts that place culinary quality alongside health, sustainability, and accessibility. Presented for the first time at the Soil to Soul Symposium in Zurich, the award highlights the important role gastronomy can play in translating nutrition knowledge into enjoyable, meaningful, and accessible food experiences. An award for people demonstrating that the future of healthy eating is also being shaped in the kitchen.
