Citizens' panel AllEGs

Everyday life, nutrition and health

The citizens' panel AllEGs, under the academic direction of Prof. Dr Jana Rückert-John, is an initiative of the research centre for nutrition, food and sustainable supply systems (ELVe). The aim of the panel is to bundle research activities on the topics of everyday life, nutrition and health and to enable greater participation by citizens of the region.

Central University Administration topics of the citizens' panel are:
↘ Organisation of everyday life
↘ Nutrition and health
↘ Food and product development
↘ Out-of-home catering
↘ Budget, housing and technology

Discussion rounds and future workshops, tastings and product tests, as well as interviews and written surveys are frequently used research formats in which we rely on your participation.

(Research) projects with and around the panel

Pulses are small, inconspicuous and full of potential. To mark International Pulses Day on 10 February 2026, we are taking you on a journey "Between research and everyday eating".

In three episodes, we explore the questions of why these protein-rich powerhouses are often underestimated, what their advantages and disadvantages are and how they find their way from the field to our plates. Personal voices and questions from society combined with current research from the Fulda University of Applied Sciences.
