Brainchild of Daniel Roullier, the Roullier Endowment Fund was established in 2016 with the aim of researching, promoting and encouraging sustainable agriculture in France and internationally. If it is to ensure food security for the world’s population in 2050, at the same time as conserving natural resources for future generations, agriculture must achieve a profound transition in its production systems. Its educational, scientific and solidarity-based mission enables it to re-energise the tangible link between farmers and society in ways that help both to meet the challenges of the future together. 𝐓𝐡𝐞 𝐌𝐢𝐧𝐞𝐫𝐚𝐥𝐥𝐢𝐮𝐦 The Roullier Endowment Fund building in Saint-Malo is home to the Minerallium exhibition devoted to minerals and their role in nutrition. This educational exhibition space also provides a forum for meetings and discussions between sustainable agriculture stakeholders. 𝐓𝐡𝐞 𝐩𝐫𝐨𝐣𝐞𝐜𝐭𝐬 In parallel with its permanent exhibition, the Endowment Fund also supports programmes that promote sustainable agriculture in France and internationally. This commitment to corporate philanthropy is fulfilled through the provision of material and/or skills support for non-profit organisations that work alongside farmers on a daily basis. In addition to their socially supportive purpose, the projects supported by the Roullier Endowment Fund are also designed to promote careers in sustainable agriculture and disseminate good practices.
