This summer I campaigned with the wonderful Oxfam at the World of Music, Arts and Dance festival, and it was possibly one of the most rewarding, eye-opening experiences of my life. Sitting down with real people and having real conversations about the food system was an extremely honest and fruitful way of getting people to think about it and share their ideas, especially at WOMAD where there was such a diverse range of interesting people. Below is a video blog I made about my personal experience and some of the most poignant things I learnt, but I seriously recommend you check out the photos on Facebook of people with their ideas and contributions. Truly inspiring.
