Fair Food Futures

Di: Dr Kiah Smith Dr Daniel Cruz and Joanna Horton in collaboration with civic food networks in Australia
  • Riassunto

  • The Fair Food Futures podcast explores the stories and visions for change put forth by community food networks in Australia as they seek to progress transformations towards sustainable food futures, and identifies the strategies, challenges and opportunities for making civil society’s visions for fair food futures come to life. Our main questions were: what does it mean to do ‘food justice’ in Australia? What does your fair food future look like, and how do we get there? With these questions in mind, we listened to stories from leaders of grassroots food organisations, community workers, farmers, First Nations communities, activists, consumers, academics and global policy makers. By bringing these voices together, the Fair Food Futures podcast aims to create a space for dialogue and alliance building between members of civic food networks in Australia, and contribute to ongoing conversations about the opportunities and challenges for policy change. Fair Food Futures is based on research conducted at The University of Queensland and funded by the Australian Research Council, in collaboration with civic food networks in Australia. The Fair Food Futures Podcast is produced and facilitated by Dr Kiah Smith, Dr Daniel Cruz, and Joanna Horton, from the School of Social Science at The University of Queensland. It was made possible thanks to the support of the Future Earth's Pathways Communication Grants Program. Recorded at VMP Studio by Liam Polmear & Ian Chapman. Illustrations by Brenna Quinlan.

  • Episode 1: ‘Creating fair food futures in Australia’: A yarn with Costa Georgiadis
    Oct 8 2022

    In this introductory episode of the Fair Food Futures podcast, Dr Kiah Smith, ARC DECRA Senior Research Fellow at the University of Queensland; and landscape architect, TV presenter, and gardening superstar Costa Georgiadis, engage in a conversation about the diversity of grassroots fair food initiatives in Australia. 

    Imagining he had a 'magic wand', Costa describes his ideal 'fair food future', and talks with Kiah about how civic food initiatives can be scaled-up to transform the wider food system.  The conversation also touches on the challenges and opportunities for materialising these fair food futures through the Australian policy making space. 

    This first episode provides details on the participatory design and findings of the Fair Food Futures Project, as well as the themes, guests, scenarios and pathways for transformative change in the food systems that will be discussed in the upcoming episodes.

  • Episode 2: ‘You don’t get justice merely by surviving the system’: a food justice conversation with Dr. Raj Patel
    Oct 31 2022

    In this second episode of the Fair Food Futures podcast, the world-famous author, filmmaker, activist, and academic Dr Raj Patel shares an overview of some of the structural problems with the global food system, in conversation with Dr Kiah Smith, ARC DECRA Senior Research Fellow at the University of Queensland. 

     By drawing on evidence gathered during more than 30 years researching (and fighting) the global and US food systems, Raj shares his insights about the history and potential of food justice as a vehicle to build more sustainable and fair food systems at various levels. Kiah talks about the concept of food justice from the Australian perspective, delving deeper into the diversity of fair food experiments already taking place at a national level, and describing the key pathways that the Fair Food Futures Project identified to build food justice in Australia. 

     The conversation touches on the interplay between capitalism, food justice, resistance, and transformative social change in the food system, from a political economy perspective and a social justice standpoint, based on the experiences of real-life movements currently transforming food systems, both globally and in Australia.

  • Episode 3: Practicing ‘intersectional solidarity and care’ with First Nations, grassroots, and refugee communities
    Nov 7 2022

    In this episode of the Fair Food Futures podcast we begin our journey alongside leaders of civic food networks in Australia, learning from them how they uphold intersectional solidarity and care practices in their work. This episode brings together three examples of how the “Long Table” scenario identified by the Fair Food Futures project can look like in practice. 

    Francis Nona and Dr Preetha Thomas, from the UQ Reconciliation Garden, explain how the garden aims to promote the voices of First Nations peoples and embed indigenous food knowledges within the public and academic discourse, while providing a safe space for First Nations students and community members. 

    Dr Daniel Cruz from the Green Pea Community Farm talks about the community building and partnership-building strategies they employ to facilitate the empowerment of the 61 refugees of the community farm, who come from Bhutanese , Solomon Islands, and Karen backgrounds primarily.  

    Susannah Holmes, from Your Farm, narrates the story of how this community-based organisation succeeded in establishing a spray-free farm in the middle of a racecourse, as well as a veggie distribution network at Deagon. 

    Our guests speak about the deeper meanings of food (e.g.: spiritual, cultural), based on their experiences working in partnership with First Nations, grassroots, and refugee communities. They discuss the encounters with marginalisation experienced by these communities in their interaction with the food system and describe how their initiatives have promoted ways of caring between the members and supporters of these projects. 

    Finally, our guests reflect on the key role that intersectional strategic alliance building plays in the transformation of the food system, and share their lessons and advice to progress a fairer food future that is more inclusive.
