The EBF is run in association with The Lexicon, 
https://www.thelexicon.org/

The lexicon is 15 years old -it’s a California-based NGO that works at the intersection of conservation, sustainability, and food.
The work we do can broadly be broken up into 3 categories.
The first thing we do is identify big challenges - Identify domain experts that can meet those challenges – and we ask them to align to bring about solutions.
We’ve been doing this type of work with over 750 companies and we’ve worked with leading food companies from around the world.
We’ve worked on everything from circular models with the Ellen Mcarthur Foundation, Agrobiodiversity with the USDA, Food as medicine, Regenerative agriculture, and more.
The second thing we do is build consensus tools and activate them.
The third thing we do is storytelling - We publish books, tv shows for PBS, pop-up shows, and curricula for schools, for government agencies and we lead international storytelling initiatives. For example this year we’re working on the international year of millets.
Those three things – are mobilize, Align, and Activate.
