399. The Inseparable Link Between the Food and Water that Sustain Us Food Talk with Dani Nierenberg (by Food Tank)

During a recent Summit in celebration of World Food Day, speakers gathered to explore this year’s theme “Water is Life. Water is Food. Leave no one behind.” This week’s episode of “Food Talk with Dani Nierenberg” features two sessions from the event. First hear about the importance of centering water in conversations about food and agriculture and the growing stress on one of the Earth’s most precious natural resources. Then, hear from a panel of four youth leaders working to improve food systems on land and at sea, who explain why food security is impossible without water security.
Speakers include Tiare Boyes, Fish Harvester, Arbegar Fishing Co. Ltd; Dana James, Postdoctoral Fellow, University of British Columbia; Lisa Kenoras, Communications Coordinator, Working Group on Indigenous Food Sovereignty and Founder, Matriarch Resistance; Tom  Pesek, Senior Liaison Officer; U.N. Food and Agriculture Organization; and Lizeth Ardila Ramírez, MSc Integrated Studies in Land and Food Systems, University of British Columbia.
