Manage episode 344970649 series 3408083
In this introductory episode of the Fair Food Futures podcast, Dr Kiah Smith, ARC DECRA Senior Research Fellow at the University of Queensland; and landscape architect, TV presenter, and gardening superstar Costa Georgiadis, engage in a conversation about the diversity of grassroots fair food initiatives in Australia.
Imagining he had a 'magic wand', Costa describes his ideal 'fair food future', and talks with Kiah about how civic food initiatives can be scaled-up to transform the wider food system. The conversation also touches on the challenges and opportunities for materialising these fair food futures through the Australian policy making space.
This first episode provides details on the participatory design and findings of the Fair Food Futures Project, as well as the themes, guests, scenarios and pathways for transformative change in the food systems that will be discussed in the upcoming episodes.
