David Hertz • Gastromotiva
Social Gastronomy
David is a visionary, a pioneer where he uses his best skills to promote social projects related to food. He is a chef and social entrepreneur, has a creative mind, loves to connect people and build bridges that can transform society to be more equitable.
He co-founded Gastromotiva, a non-profit organization based in three countries that empowers through kitchen vocational training, nutritional and sustainable food education socially vulnerable communities such as youth from low-income families, immigrants and women who have been left behind.
One of the most important projects he is involved with nowadays is the Social Gastronomy Movement. He is one of the minds and hearts that co-leads and foster collaborations and access between socially engaged chefs and social entrepreneurs with other sectors of society. This movement aims to scale local best practices to transform millions of lives of people who have been left behind in our society.
David also encourages and engages everyone that is in the food chain such as the hospitality market, governments and industry to become more inclusive and socially responsible to assure the sustainability of our food and health system.
Join David as he shares how he uses food as a way to connect people, help the underprivileged communities and encourage creativity and reflection.

What is ‘Daily Pulse?’
With self-isolation measures and lockdowns in place, the need for connection has never been more real. We've collaborated with influencers, CEOs, and celebrities from around the world to launch the 'Daily Pulse'. Taking no more than 10 minutes a day, it is a free global initiative designed to connect humans around the world.
Every day, we'll be releasing a new session lovingly curated by influencers and thought leaders such as Anthony Pangilinan, David Hertz from Gastromotiva, and David Choi, where they'll share insights into their lives and their thoughts as they venture through the same uncertain times as you and me.
As we journey through this pandemic together, we also hope to shine a light on humankind and your unique perspective. Whether it’s inspiring the world with heartwarming quarantine stories, reflecting through poems, or sharing what makes you laugh, we'd love for you to share it with us.
Life's more fun when you’re living life in them. Join the conversation here: learn-gnowbe.com/daily-pulse
