Providing surplus food to people in poverty is simply not a long-term solution to either food waste or poverty!
“Food waste can’t fight hunger, only systemic change will do that. Unless we resolve to address poverty and inequality, disentangling food waste from the equation, a second tier charitable food aid system will continue to be entrenched” @sabineegoodwin

Final thoughts from @HenryDimbleby:
"We are at the beginning of this. Food is recognised as a bit problem.
What science can do is catching up with the complexity e.g. AI to understand appetite" #SusFoodConf21
More data are needed to help improve our understanding on #FoodSystems and #FoodInsecurity. Exploring alternatives.
Well done, @foodgov !
#citizenscience #foodresearch
It's really important that @foodgov is recognising #CitizenScience as a methodology with the potential to engage people with #foodpolicy change & research. Read their latest report led by @FoodPolicyCity 's @sartorialfoodie

A National Food Service is possible and necessary. In Belo Horizonte, hunger has effectively been eliminated, with 2% of the city’s annual budget.
This people-centred approach includes public restaurants, community gardens and shortening of supply chains.

There are over 5,000 food crops, but global food systems continue to be dominated by only a few. Agrobiodiversity is a strategic asset to fight food and nutrition insecurity, climate change and poverty. #foodinsecurity #FoodSystems @food_strategy
There are over 5,000 food crops in the world, but #foodsystems are dominated by only a few. What are the advantages of using under-utilized species?

"My ideal Food-topia would contain organic farms as
well as solar-powered high-rise greenhouses growing
fruit and vegetables in cities; rewilded landscapes, as
well as traditional upland farms....
