What does our food system look like when we look at it through a different lens? Food for Thought is a multi-media project about the global food industry and gets you thinking about the systems of today and the future. Photographer and filmmaker Kadir van Lohuizen explored the world of food hidden behind our plates with co-director Doke Romeijn.
Every Monday in April, you can watch one of the documentaries from this four-part series on Dutch TV network VPRO. On 13 May, we will reflect on the images in Wageningen and share insights from unexpected angles. We will marvel and wonder, and above all give space to different voices: From which lens do you look at the system? How can the system also look different in the future? And what will that require of you, me, and us together?
About Food for Thought
More information on speakers and featured excerpts of the series will follow. You can count on an enriching evening with insights from different angles. We can at least reveal that we will give stage to documentary makers Kadir van Lohuizen and Doke Romeijn, WUR researchers Imke de Boer and Liesje Mommer, and to you!
The series as currently shown on VPRO is spoken multilingually and subtitled in Dutch. For the event, English-language excerpts are selected or subtitled in English. Given the international nature of the series and WUR, the main language of this event is English.
