Founded 2022
The EIT Food Alt Protein Project is no longer active as a student group after evolving into the Protein Diversification Academy in early 2025. The Protein Diversification academy was founded by many EIT Food Alt Protein Project alumni with a mission to develop and provide the world’s leading educational material on protein diversification. Launching later in 2025, they will continue to be a fantastic resource for alternative protein education at all levels of experience and expertise.
If you want to help build upon that progress and restart an Alt Protein Project group at any of the six universities participating in EIT Food’s Master in Food Systems, please contact us directly. We would love to work with you!
About
The Alt Protein Project at EIT Food’s mission is to build a future-fit food system that produces healthy and sustainable food for all by raising awareness and generating interest in alternative proteins.
EIT Food is the world’s largest and most dynamic food innovation community that creates connections across the food system to stimulate new ideas and innovations. Our chapter is hosted by a pan-European community consisting of six universities. These include Lund University, University of Warsaw, University of Reading, University of Turin, University of Hohenheim and Aarhus University.
This diverse range of academic institutions enables us to engage an equally diverse range of students, scientists, staff and other stakeholders. Bringing together the individual strengths of all partners from our network, we will focus on expanding alternative protein research and education opportunities, while building a passionate student society across Europe.
