Om Podcasten

Our food chain is full of surprises and our food is handled by people you will most likely never meet. Where did your coffee come from? Who grew your cocoa for your chocolate? Who made your bread? We are about to start a journey together, finding our way through the food systems. In every step we take, we’ll walk side by side with one of our activists around the world. These are farmers, chefs and everyone in between. These people are all contributing to a more sustainable food system and they try to enhance access to good, clean and fair food. But we will also listen to stories of indigenous culture and knowledge, which can inspire us to think in a different way. We want to give a stage to the people, whose voices are often not taken into consideration, or who are simply overlooked in the debate around food. We want to demonstrate that we all contribute to a more sustainable food system, that everyone has a story to tell and that there's a lesson in every single one of them.
