What is food sovereignty? Dr. Jennifer Grenz says that it’s about reclaiming and revitalizing food systems, which can heal both people and the land.
Dr. Grenz, who is an agroecologist with UBC Faculty of Forestry, explains how revitalizing Indigenous food systems can help tackle food insecurity. Indigenous food sovereignty is also about cultural resurgence: being able to access foods and medicine and find new ones as we face climate change.
