Our Programs

To achieve our goals, Danone Institutes set up concrete programs of action. They may deal with any food or nutrient that could have an impact on human health and are generally designed to address major public health and nutrition issues. Danone Institutes are committed to taking a multidisciplinary approach that combines medicine, biology, and the human sciences.

While programs of action are primarily initiated at the local level, some of them can be adapted and implemented in other countries. Danone Institutes also collaborate to develop programs with a broad international scope.
