Everyone likes newsletters, right!? Of course Food Shift should have one as well. We're thinking that the most important now is to share things we've found that might be usefull in our direction ahead.
On saturday the 9th during 'Framtidsveckan' Food Shift is together with Studiefrämjandet Göteborg arranging Learning Lab #1. The focus for the day is about how to shift our food system from being a part of the global crisis that we can see now, to being a driving force for solutions.
As tools and perspecives for this transformation we are using Regeneration and Bioregionalism. One is 'trending' in Sweden now, the other is virually unknown. Let's change that.
We have choosen to make it a learning lab co-created with the participants since we believe that this emerging field of regeneration och bioregionalism is depended on personal relations, new initiatives and coalitions.

A feature of Food Shift is the Project kitchens, a method borrowed from Enspiral.
"The format brings together a small number of people who have projects they would like assistance with and puts one project at a time under the spotlight for around 25 minutes. Generally 3-4 projects can be covered in a 2-hour Kitchen. A Chef facilitates; with the role of creating an atmosphere of trust, keeping things rolling, and avoiding wasting time through the process."
Sofar we've had a kitchen around ecovillages but more is coming up. Check it out here: https://foodshift.se/c/workspaces/project-kitchens
We are currently looking to fund our own Zoom account which we are using for many of our activities like the Project Kitchens we are holding. In order to be able to fund this we would need at least 3 more people that are supporting our open collective. You can be that lovely supporter by sending us €5 per month.
