Last week, I presented a working chapter of my PhD at #EUIA25 hosted by Vrije Universiteit Brussel. Shared early insights on the EU’s shift from food security to food sovereignty narratives during two #crisis moments. So much #foodforthought to explore further in the thesis!

Grateful for the opportunity to speak at the recent “Food Justice Through Science” webinar, hosted by Food4Sustainability CoLAB focusing on #Science communication It was a privilege to share some preliminary findings on different #European #narratives: from food security to food #sovereignty 🌱
