NUEVA YORK, 5 de septiembre de 2019 /PRNewswire/ -- David Hertz, chef nacido en Brasil y emprendedor social, pionero de un modelo que utiliza la comida para mejorar la vida de las personas con ingresos bajos, ha sido galardonado con el Premio Charles Bronfman 2019. En 2006, Hertz cofundó Gastromotiva, una organización sociogastronómica con sede en Brasil que lucha contra el desempleo y la desigualdad social y utiliza los excedentes de comida para «crear oportunidades para las personas que viven al margen de la sociedad».

David Hertz, Charles Bronfman Prize 2019 recipient, Co-Founder and President of Gastromotiva, in his restaurant and school Refettorio Gastromotiva in Lapa, Rio de Janeiro.

El Premio Charles Bronfman es un galardón anual dotado con 100 000 USD que premia a filántropos menores de cincuenta años cuyo trabajo innovador, dirigido por valores judíos ha contribuido a mejorar el mundo de forma significativa. Fue creado por Ellen Bronfman Hauptman y Stephen Bronfman junto con sus cónyuges, Andrew Hauptman y Claudine Blondin Bronfman, con el objetivo de honrar a su padre por su 70 cumpleaños.

«Tenemos el privilegio de poder honrar a David y ayudar a que su importante trabajo siga creciendo», afirmó Ellen Bronfman Hauptman. «Merece ocupar su lugar entre otros excepcionales galardonados con este premio que han abordado importantes problemas aportando soluciones transformadoras».

El periplo de Hertz en la cocina de un kibutz cuando contaba 18 años fue el inicio de un viaje que le inspiró a desarrollar proyectos para ayudar a los jóvenes y los más vulnerables.

«Es un honor indescriptible recibir el Premio Charles Bronfman», afirmó Hertz. «Siento que tengo la responsabilidad de representar a los emprendedores sociales que promueven los valores de la comunidad judía más allá de ella, de enseñar a otros cómo la comida y la gastronomía social pueden atajar problemas acuciantes que afectan a nuestro planeta y trascender las barreras geográficas, de clase, ascendencia y religión».

El trabajo de Hertz aborda una necesidad fundamental. «Mientras un tercio de los alimentos se desperdicia», observa, «hay 1000 millones de personas que pasan hambre de forma crónica y 200 millones de desempleados en todo el mundo». Gastromotiva ofrece una solución: «formación vocacional culinaria, clases sobre nutrición y espíritu emprendedor gratuitas en Brasil, El Salvador, Sudáfrica y México, y seguimos creciendo».

Durante los Juegos Olímpicos de 2016, Hertz abrió Refettorio Gastromotiva en Lapa, Río de Janeiro, junto con el chef Massimo Botura y la periodista Alexandra Forbes. Esta escuela culinaria/restaurante que no desperdicia alimentos enseña a estudiantes con pocos recursos a preparar «comidas deliciosas y saludables utilizando el excedente de alimentos que de lo contrario se desperdiciaría», y las sirve a las poblaciones vulnerables, a menudo personas sin hogar, «en un espacio acogedor que fomenta la compañía».

El impulsor de la nominación, Devry Boughner Vorwerk, miembro del grupo de Jóvenes Líderes Mundiales y antiguo vicepresidente de Cargill, escribió: «David ha convertido algo que bien podría haber quedado reducido a una pequeña iniciativa comunitaria en un movimiento a escala mundial».

«Estoy muy contento de que los jueces hayan elegido a David Hertz», declaró Charles Bronfman. «Sus innovaciones dirigidas a eliminar el hambre y fomentar al mismo tiempo la dignidad de las personas tienen un impacto global».
