This action-research project will establish a mutual exchange network on just food system transition including food system actors from four usually unconnected geographies. This will be a space for dialogue, exchange and learning between local food system actors working and advocating for justice in the food system. It will include organisations and movements linked to the right to food, women’s rights, and agroecological transitions, as well as the policymakers in each case central to the realisation of just food transitions and European advocacy NGOs important for larger global policy change.
The primary goal is to establish a trans-scalar (local, national, international) and interregional (Europe, South America, Southern Africa, West Africa) network of actors engaged in food system transitions, which includes the experiences of many who have yet to be given the attention they deserve in debates about sustainable development. The project will generate unique South-South engagement that incorporates both national and international CSOs and produce policy relevant outputs that can be used immediately by project partners for practical engagement in food system transition advocacy work and policy formation. The data generated by the workshops will itself be unique, including food journey stories, visual representations of food system injustices, and additional audio and visual data that can promote knowledge sharing and mutual learning.
