The Long Food Movement


Listen Later

The Long Food Movement report presents a powerful narrative for the need for long-term planning on the part of civil society to build more just, diverse and resilient food systems. The report lays bare the likely consequences of “agribusiness as usual” over the next 25 years, and shows how careful forward planning by civil society can effectively counter the corporate takeover of food systems. So how exactly does the Long Food Movement envision the decentralisation of control, and the democratising of food systems, as the key to feeding the world? How will it regenerate ecological and other systems, vital to people and the planet? We speak to Lim Li Ching, a Senior Researcher with the Third World Network and a member of the International Panel of Experts on Sustainable Food Systems (IPES-Food) to discuss this and more.
