This is a part of the Food Justice series on The Landworkers' Radio.

Perceptions of food sovereignty as a concept have often remained limited to the realm of food production and food security.

Although the term food sovereignty inherently puts ‘food in our hands’ (collectivising the power to make decisions about seeds, food production, food waste, and trade – as well as having more food on our plates in a literal sense) there is a danger of limiting ourselves as food growers, farmers, fishers and community organisers if we think of food sovereignty as solely a ‘food’ issue.

In this episode we want to find out how grassroots organising for food sovereignty relates to the notion of justice.

Join Georgie Styles and guest host Jo Kamal from the LWA and Food In Our Hands in conversation with India Hamilton from The Sustainable Cooperative (SCOOP) in Jersey to find out how the concept of food sovereignty as a movement for justice works on the ground and in the day to day practices of community food projects like SCOOP.

This episode was produced in collaboration with Food In Our Hands.
