What I do

I am part of the faculty and I support the knowledge agenda of the Fellowship, where we try to find out how collective and individual leadership can contribute to the transformation of food systems in Africa.

My prediction about the future of food in 100 years

The way food gets produced, processed, transported, and sold will be completely different. Food systems will become a contributor to biodiversity, climate resilience and all people’s livelihoods and health – instead of being a taker of biodiversity, climate resilience and people’s livelihoods and health.

What I like about The African Food Fellowship

There is a special energy of change agents in food systems coming together to exchange, learn, advocate, and have fun.
