S.4 Ep.3 Transforming the politics of knowledge for food justice

People vs Inequality Podcast

It's been a while but we are back with another exiting episode on Food Justice! Whose knowledge is considered when taking decisions? How to transform the politics of knowledge and the narratives that drive growing inequalities and unsustainable food systems? Join us for this episode to learn more!
Whilst the world continues to grapple with the reality of yet another food price crisis and growing hunger, we speak to those on the frontline to find out why the food system keeps failing and what we can do about it. In previous episodes we spoke to farmers on how they organize, and from campaigners that are challenging corporate power. Today we hear from Eloisa delos Reyes about research as a way to make change happen. I hear you thinking, really? But this is not just any research, it is feminist, it is participatory and it is about action. It is also a core part of the work of the Asian Pacific Forum for Women, Law and Development, bringing together over 265 members across 30 countries.
We ask Eloisa why Feminist Participatory Action Research is key to achieving Food Sovereignty and how it works. We hear about the narratives, powers and militarization they are up against, and how women and communities nonetheless continue to assert their rights to land and food.
