Part I dives in to the tensions that arise when places designed for the people are not built in collaboration with people; how public procurement could help usher in a new era of food and farming; and how we should be making space for the first-hand expertise of people with diverse cultural traditions.    Episode Flow 1:25 - Demands from members of Slow Food Youth Berlin 2:27 - Introduction & Multiple Strands of Justice 3:20 - Kavita & the social sustainability of Food System Change 17:43 - Stephanie Wunder & the power of Public Procurement  27:05 - Cacan, Yesil Cember & Cultural Expertise     Links to resources Slow Food Youth Berlin: https://www.instagram.com/slowfoodyouth_berlin/  Economic Justice: The Cap Reform Global Justice: Kathrin Hartmann, author of a new book in German entitled "It won't get greener" accuses Germany — especially within the EU — of "fatally" offloading its environmental costs from foodstuffs overseas. In March, she wrote that Germany "theoretically" had land enough to be 90% self-sufficient, instead of being the "third-largest" foodstuff importer.  “Most inhabitants, especially the OG Berliners, weren’t born with deep pockets, and they just never had the money to splurge on food—and often they still don't.” (Still in Berlin) Kavita - https://www.vice.com/de/contributor/kavita-goodstar  Halal meat Banned at EU level BerlinLayers website, “The hall was refurbished and re-oriented to focus on local high-quality food manufacturers.
