Sustainable Foodie

This has been in my drafts for the past week.. I am delighted to have been part of the #learningjourney with Woza Nami under @SAFoodlab in collaboration with various stakeholders including @eThekwiniM Agro Ecology Unit and Food Security division of the Health Unit.

Thanks for having us at the #FOOD2030EU Conference! We enjoyed the inspiring sessions, networking with experts and other initiatives. And we are grateful that we were able to present our work around #schoolfood! It's time for a new menu: School meals do more than provide food!🍎

“It’s important to first understand the challenges of cities or communities we’re trying to help, and then coming up with interventions,” says @Balance_Phala of @ICLEI. “We need to translate abstract concepts into real world solutions which are implementable. And lastly, we need to move beyond only talking about interventions to actually doing them.” #BetterNutrition #UrbanNutrition #NiceProject

Thrilled to have been part of #MNF2023 speaking about interventions for urban food systems transformation in AfriFOODlinks project #throughFood

Most of the urban population by 2050 will be in small or secondary Asian and African cities, with ⬆️ hunger and dependency on processed foods.
