My guest on the podcast today is designer and researcher Saara-Maria Kauppi, aka Sassu. Sassu and I studied at the same time in the Creative Sustainability Master Program at Aalto University. She worked on insect consumption and design for her master’s thesis. Afterwards, she continued to work on this topic for her PhD at the Norwegian University of Science and Technology. In the episode, we discussed the research on insect-rearing, eating and consumption in Western society, the current situation in the EU and Finland, businesses and design. Hope you enjoy our discussion.
