ACCTING is delighted to be co-hosting an online webinar on marginalised communities’ access to healthy and sustainable food together with UrbanCommunity, a project supporting local actions to create sustainable and just cities.

The conversation starts with an introduction from ACCTING researchers on recommendations to policymakers on how to promote access to healthy and sustainable food for the marginalised and vulnerable in the context of the European Green Deal.

Greek activist Filippos Polatsidis then shares insights from Pervolarides in Thessaloniki, a community distributing food that is healthy, seasonal and regional to those who need it the most. Filippos shares Pervolarides’ own experience and reflect on the policy changes needed for the situation to improve.

We then open up the floor for a conversation with all online participants, to hear their own experiences, ask questions, and just have a nice chat together.
