Mission & Interests
Goals: True Animal Protein Price (TAPP) Coalition is a non-profit foundation, focused on fair food prices and taxes including external environmental and health costs, to make the production and consumption of meat and dairy and other animal based proteins more sustainable. This will reduce consumption in line with planetary boundaries and dietary guidelines. We also advocate for (fiscal) subsidies for healthy food and food with low carbon footprints and a socially just transition.
We cannot do this alone. That is why we work together with partners with similar goals and interests. Together, we work towards a fair future for people, animals and nature. We are a coalition of over 60 food companies and organisations working in agriculture, health, animal welfare, environment or youth, representing 1,5 million people and 3000 companies (EU, USA, Africa).

Activities
Main EU Legislative Proposals: We target different EU legislative proposals like the EU 2040 climate targets, EU Farm to Fork Strategy, Sustainable Food System Framework Law, fiscal policies for food products (eg VAT reform, import taxes/CBAM), Climate finance (loss and damage fund), EU climate policies and Agriculture policies.
Communication Activities: Types of outreach towards EU institutions is writing letters/emails and other communication. For instance we organised an event in February 2021 in the EU parliament 'the true price of meat', where we presented two reports, we had a campaign and a petition on EU food prices and we published reports, like 'Sustainability charge on meat'. We also organised the EU Food price debate, an online event. We asked the EU parliament to amend the EU farm to fork strategy with succes, on the topic of VAT tariffs for food products, and true pricing. In 2023 we organised an event in Brussels where we handed over a report 'Pay as you eat dairy, eggs and meat' to a representative of the EU Commission. We support the EU Agri-ETS report published 13th November 2023 by the EU commission.
