Description
How do we ‘do food better?’ Better Food. Better World. poses this very question to listeners working in food policy and concerned global citizens alike. Over the course of 6 episodes, author Elizabeth Nyamayaro paints an audio picture of food systems around the world and the people involved from production to consumption, from farm to plate. In a world, where 811 million people go to bed hungry every single night while enough food to feed 2 billion people is wasted every single year, this podcast challenges all of us to think differently about food. Better Food. Better World. is a United Nations World Food Programme initiative. WFP works across 88 countries to bring life-saving food to a hundred million people displaced by conflict, disasters, and climate change. In 2020, the WFP was awarded the Noble Peace Prize in recognition of its work.
