A journey through feminist agroecology

Why is agroecology not possible without feminism? What does feminism have to do with the food you eat? Agroecology is gaining steam as the way forward to sustainable, just and healthy food systems, however, there is still ample confusion about why the feminist perspective is important, how it aligns with agroecology and what it has to offer to food system transformation. It is often confused with gender equity, whereas feminist values include but go far beyond gender. In this podcast activists, researchers and practitioners who dedicate their lives to feminism and agroecology share how women (and others) are invisibly sustaining the food system, what it means to place ‘life’, rather than profit, in the centre of the food system, and what food systems would look like if they were based on feminist values. We explore how the oppression of women forms part of systemic oppression against anyone who falls out of the white, heterosexual, cis-male box, what decolonial and indigenous feminisms offer to the agroecology movement, and how to strengthen that movement from a feminist perspective.

  Feminism inside the agroecology and food sovereignty movement

  Nov 20, 202330 minS1

  <p>In this third and final episode of our journey through feminist agroecology, we explore the complexities and challenges of feminism inside the agroecology and food sovereignty movement. </p><br><p>Our two guests, Leonida Odongo and Paula Gioia, share with us how they experience patriarchal behavior inside the movement, each from their own unique perspectives. Their experiences show that movements on food sovereignty and agroecology are not by themselves feminist. The reproduction of patriarchal and male chauvinist behaviors, for example, is also prevalent in these movements. Within the agroecological movement, we want to change the system, but it is...

  Where Indigenous feminisms and food sovereignties meet

  Dec 21, 202243 minS0

  In this episode we continue our journey, exploring the link between food sovereignty and Indigenous feminism as a decolonial project of reparations and reconstruction in the context of North America. Lisa Ironcloud tells us about the art of butchering buffalo, her personal journey of reconnection with Indigenous foods, and how this led her to support other people, especially women, in similar processes. Priscilla Settee then provides us with insights into the historical legacy behind the discrimination and intersectional, colonial violence against food and women.

  ¿Qué tiene que ver el feminismo con los alimentos que comes?

  Mar 8, 202232 minS0

  ¿Cómo serían los sistemas alimentarios si estuvieran basados ​​en valores feministas? Entrevistamos a Diana Lilia Trevilla Espinal de México, investigadora que enfoca su trabajo en agroecología feminista e Isa Alvarez de España que trabaja para URGENCI en el movimiento de soberanía alimentaria y agroecología a nivel local y global desde una perspectiva feminista. Un sistema alimentario feminista colocaría la reproducción de la 'vida', tanto humana como no humana, en el centro de cómo tomamos decisiones sobre los alimentos, y sería nuestra responsabilidad colectiva garantizar el acceso a alimentos saludables para todos, en l...

  What does feminism have to do with the food you eat?

  Mar 3, 202231 minS0

  What would food systems look like if they were based on feminist values?  We interviewed  Diana Lilia Trevilla Espinal from Mexico, a researcher who focuses her work on feminist agroecology and Isa Alvarez from Spain who works for URGENCI in the food sovereignty and agroecology movement locally and globally from a feminist perspective. A feminist food system would place the reproduction of ‘life’, both human and non-human, at the heart of how we make decisions about food, and it would be our collective responsibility to ensure access to healthy food for all, rather than considering food as a commodity determined by mar...
