Food, sustainability, health, human development...these are knotty, complex topics filled with nuance. At Rooted Research Collective, we specialise in making sense of it all. We dig into the data, uncover the facts, challenge misinformation and ask questions such as: why is this happening and what can we do about it? Then we turn those insights into clear strategies for change, supported by compelling narratives and visuals.

With over four decades of combined experience across science, public health, policy and communication, our team has quickly built a reputation for impactful, trusted work. In just over a year, we’ve partnered with leading institutions, been cited by major media outlets and earned backing from Craigslist and the Food Systems Institute. We're also launching a climate writing fellowship in collaboration with Green Queen Media.

Rooted is guided by a global advisory board that includes leading voices like Jack Bobo, whose expertise in food systems and public trust has shaped conversations from farm to policy table.
