FF - Future ForkDisruptive conversations are the bread and butter of Future Fork. Watch on as we revisit some of the best sit-downs from the past year.
In this episode, Michelin-recognised Chef Sammy Monsour discusses how food activism provides a new path outside of the kitchen and the most rewarding aspects of his journey. Founder and CEO of AGREA, Cherrie Atilano, explains their organisation's "ecology of dignity" approach to uplift marginalised farmers and fishers, addressing challenges like climate change. The role of women in transforming food systems and the need for two breadwinners in farming families are also discussed. Finally, President of the Eastern Africa Farmers Federation, Elizabeth Nsimadala stresses the importance of investing in farmers, increasing financing for the agriculture sector, and leveraging science and technology, including the need for scaling technologies and farmer-generated data and models.
