One in ten people in the UK received a foodbank parcel in the last twelve months alone. There are reports of people declining potatoes at food banks because they can’t afford the energy to heat them. At the same time, our farming system has taken us to a place where we’ve lost 70% of our biodiversity since 1970 and we have 40 years worth of soil left. Is it really so hard to imagine a food system that actually feeds everyone, while at the same time actively regenerating the world? By the end of this session it won’t be. Hear from **Daniel Christian Wahl**, author of ‘*Designing Regenerative Cultures*', **Christian Jonet**, whose Ceinture Alimenterre is reimagining the food system of Liege in Belgium, **Mama D Ujuaje**, co-curator of ‘The Food and Otherworldly Sensory Journeys’ and **Andrew Whitley** of Scotland the Bread, the Real Bread Campaign and author of *Bread Matters*. If this session leaves you very hungry for a new food system, head over to our ‘Food’ space to continue the discussion: [https://vive.transitiontogether.org.uk/s/food/](https://vive.transitiontogether.org.uk/s/food/) **Daniel Christian Wahl** is one of the catalysts of the rising reGeneration and the author of Designing Regenerative Cultures. He works as a consultant, educator and activist with NGOs, businesses, governments and change agents. Daniel grew up in Germany, studied Biology in Scotland and California, Holistic Science at Schumacher College and wrote a PhD in Design for Human and Planetary Health in 2006. After co-directing Findhorn College for four years, Daniel moved to Majorca, Spain in 2010 where he is literally growing roots and deepening his practice of facilitating bioregional regeneration. His 2016 book 'Designing Regenerative Cultures' has quickly gained international acclaim, his Blog on Medium is followed by over 24k people and his social media advocacy has a combined audience of over 850k people around the world. **Christian Jonet** joins us today from Liege in Belgium, where he is the founder of many things, most notably the Ceinture Alimenterre Liegoise initiative, or The Liege Food Belt in English. He was one of the founders of Liege en Transition. Ceinture Alimenterre is one of the most bold and exciting attempts to relocalise the food system of a city: in the past fice years, they raised over €5 million of community investment and used it to start 21 new food co-ops. They have built a connected network of producers, retail outlets, processers, a local currency and much more. Christian has been central to the story unfolding there, and brings his experience, the joys and the scars of actually making something like this a living breathing reality in 2020. **Andrew Whitley** is a baker, author, co-founder of the Real Bread Campaign and Scotland The Bread. He started an organic bakery in Cumbria in the 1970s. He wrote his award- winning book Bread Matters, and has been credited with ‘changing the way we think about bread’ by the BBC Food & Farming Awards. From 2010-20 Andrew grew a small organic agroforestry project in the Scottish Borders and began researching historic cereal varieties – work that led to founding Scotland The Bread, a community benefit society based in Fife which proposes a Scottish grain and bread supply that is diverse, healthy, equitable, locally-controlled and sustainable. In 2021 his Flour to the People project won the Innovation category in the BBC Food & Farming Awards. **Mama D Ujuaje** is a Community Researcher and Facilitator whose background is in Food and Nourishment Practice and live art advocacy around Food Justice and Autonomous Co-nurturing. She currently curates, within Community Centred Knowledge, Learning Journeys, which explore the interfaces of community, modernity and systemic justice through the routes of art, culture and embodying relationship with the more than human. She uses action research approaches to interrogate where community and academic knowledge construction interface. She is also interested in how humans navigate justice issues over time and space and manage personal and social trauma within bodies located across the territories of the Anthropocene. ‘The Journeys are for some a onetime escape to the restaurant of recollections. Where is the exit? The participant can also cook. If wished, they can re-purpose everything the journey has unfolded for them and there is no insistence on how to particularise the response. Artist might become activist and activist artist, each seeking to redress the balance of their understanding and to trust in the earthiness of themselves to reconstruct the world again’.  Having lived and worked in East and West Africa and the Caribbean, Mama D has traversed physiologies and psychologies of nourishment in different contexts. This is what has encouraged her to draw out the narratives of others, coaxing out inner stories from a wide range of bodies and supporting the integration of each into the loom of nature – revealing what each human is carrying, deep within our-selves. Mama D brings alchemy to the ordinary.
