Achieving Food System Regeneration through our individual choices with Bela Gil. Co-hosted by Dan Saladino.

Welcome to the first episode of the SFYN podcast in 2023! The Slow Food Youth Network, or as we call it SFYN, is a worldwide network of young activists with different backgrounds who want to contribute to a better local and international food system. 

This is a special edition of the SFYN Podcast because it was recorded live during Terra Madre 2022, the biggest Slow Food event and it’s the second chapter of a series of three episodes. In this episode Valentina interviewed Bela Gil. Bela is a famous Brazilian influencer. She holds a master's degree in Gastronomic Sciences from the University of Gastronomic Sciences of Italy (UNISG), with an emphasis on the global food system. She also has a background in food and holistic nutrition, Ayurveda Nutrition, Iridology, Macrobiotics, permaculture and Agroecology. She is a chef and the host of a popular TV program in Brazil. This episode was co-hosted with Dan Saladino, producer at BBC Radio4 “The Food Programme” and author of the book "Eating to Extinction". 

• Can we influence the food system with our individual choices?
  
• How can hunger become a manipulative tool for governments?
• Can food corporations also play a role in sustainable food systems? 
• And much more to find out!
