Nice to meet you Isaac! Such a great area that you’re working in. Agricultural policies are super important to change food systems to make them more equitable, healthy and sustainable.

Ah no worries! Sounds like a good proposed solution nonetheless 🙂

Yes, a good point. Having a dedicated workspace is super important, but a luxury that not everyone has.

Hi @sharlaine How great that you have a paper on this topic! Could you share the link?

The reduced work week is such a clever proposed solution. More time for food prep would be a great thing. Do you feel that you’ve been working more since covid? With all the lockdowns and limited ability to do other things, I feel the work week is getting…

Q 2. we should be shifting to a systems approach to nature, focus on agroecology and less on rehabilitation. If we are shifting food sources to focus on blue food, we need to be mindful of how this transition is promoted.

This is indeed the future 🙂 Do you know what types of meals they serve? How do they classify foods as ‘eco-friendly’ or ‘nutritional’?

Sounds like a really interesting path you’re forging, those skills will be so relevant to shaping food systems. 
What changes would you like to see in the food system? What areas of policy action do you feel are most important or timely?

Your home-made bread looks incredibly light and fluffy! What’s your secret (seriously, please share- my bread always turns out so solid!)?
