Description

Get ready for a thrilling episode as we take you to Berlin for the Schnippeldisko, also known as the Disco Soup! Hosted by the Slow Food Youth Network, this event rescues food from going to waste and turns it into delicious soups and meals. Join me as we chat with special guests at the party, and learn how the food collected will be served the next day at the Wir Haben Es Satt demonstration (which took place on January 21st) - a call for a more sustainable agriculture. Together, we'll also discuss the impact of food policies on our local and global food systems, and how European policies affect the Global South.

Our food chain is full of surprises and our food is handled by people you will most likely never meet. Where did your coffee come from? Who grew your cocoa for your chocolate? Who made your bread? We are about to start a journey together, finding our way through the food systems. We want to give a stage to the people, whose voices are often not taken into consideration, or who are simply overlooked in the debate around food. We want to demonstrate that we all contribute to a more sustainable food system, that everyone has a story to tell and that there’s a lesson in every single one of them. — Production by Slow Food Youth Network Hosted by Valentina Gritti Music by Leonardo Prieto Dorantes
