Host: Eva Goulbourne
Eva has spent 15 years as a food systems practitioner driving change on global agriculture and food issues within the food service, restaurant, and retail industries. She started Littlefoot to provide strategy, marketing, communications and advising services to food businesses, foundations, and nonprofits focused on creating positive environmental impact. In becoming a mother (and thus creating “little feet” of her own), Eva has more urgency to ensure we leave a better, safer food system for her children, and yours.
Before creating Littlefoot, Eva was a founding team member of ReFED, the leading non-profit dedicated to reducing U.S. food waste, serving in several roles including Director of Communications, then Director of Business Engagement & Programming. She was responsible for the wide distribution of the original ReFED Roadmap report, which has had millions of impressions in the mainstream and trade media and continues to influence corporate strategies and policy agendas to this day. She was also successful in securing over $1.1M in funding for the organization.
Previous to ReFED, she worked at the World Economic Forum serving on the food and agriculture team. There, she supported multi-stakeholder partnerships in 12 countries across Southeast Asia, Africa, and South America to mobilize investment and coordination amongst global food companies, heads of state, ministers of agriculture, and farmer organizations.
She is based in Boulder, Colorado with her husband and two beautiful, goofy children.
