This week Food Can Fix It is joined by two activist chefs, Manal Alalem from Egypt and Anahita Dhondy from India. The two have vastly different backgrounds, but they’re united in a common passion for spreading knowledge about their traditional cuisine, championing women’s participation in the culinary industry and doing their bit to help us reach of the UN Sustainable Development Goals.
Manal and Anahita came to the EAT Stockholm Food Forum as representatives of the Chef’s Network, a global group of chefs who are working to create a better food system for all.
