Episode 6: Climate Change | Role of agroecology in Current Food Systems Cha Kula Podcast

In this episode of the Cha Kula Podcast, we delve into the repercussions of current food production and consumption on the environment, emphasizing the imperative shift towards agroecological practices in the face of Climate Change.

Joining us in the studio are Dr. Anika Molesworth, a farmer, scientist, and advocate known for her contributions to agriculture and climate change awareness, and Sylvia Kuria, a certified organic farmer, trainer, and supporter of small-scale farmers in cultivating their organic kitchen gardens.

Agrifood systems persistently grapple with susceptibility to shocks and disruptions stemming from conflict, climate variability, extreme weather events, and economic contractions. Coupled with widening inequalities, these challenges continually test the ability of agrifood systems to provide nutritious, safe, and affordable diets for everyone.

The escalating factors contributing to food insecurity and malnutrition have become our 'new normal.' There is no alternative but to intensify our efforts in reshaping agrifood systems, steering them towards achieving the Sustainable Development Goals.
