The Louis Bonduelle Foundation : 
European public authorities have made nutrition a top health priority, particularly through various national programmes. The Louis Bonduelle Foundation joins this movement by making vegetables and their benefits the focus of its initiatives. By providing a new look at vegetables and their daily consumption, the Foundation encourages people to adopt better eating habits and gives the means to do so. Its initiative aims to combine lifelong health, quality living, and healthy enjoyment.
The Louis Bonduelle Foundation is a non-profit organisation created in October 2004. The mission it has undertaken is to bring about long-term change in eating habits, upholds its commitment to supporting research on important topics in nutrition and eating habits.
 The Foundation therefore strives to be an active participant in the development of knowledge in the area of nutrition and in the dissemination of this knowledge.
This year, as in 2011, the applications were once again of such high quality that the jury awarded not one but two Research Prizes. Nathalie Michels, from the Department of Public Health of the University of Ghent in Belgium, and Eloïse Rémy, from the Centre for Taste and Feeding Behaviour at Inra in Dijon in France, will thus both receive a bonus of 10,000 euro to continue their thesis work.
