Abstract
This chapter presents the results of two research projects in sustainable nutrition. The first project, 'sustainable nutrition in the transition to parenthood', was carried out in Berlin, Germany. The second analysis, 'nutritional careers', was carried out as part of a three-year project, looking at 'The Turn-around in German Agrarian Policy: New Forms of Food Consumption?', conducted in the cities of Leipzig and Munich, Germany. For decades, nutritional politics was of much less importance than agricultural politics. Communication regarding the changes in food consumption that are necessary to contribute to sustainable development faces many challenges, especially as there is no consensus concerning what the basic elements of sustainable nutrition should include. The sample contained more women, persons with higher educational levels and higher household incomes when compared with the average population in Berlin. In addition, the number of immigrants is much lower in the sample than in the population as a whole.
