🌍 This #WorldFoodDay, let’s recognise the women who keep us fed.

Women perform 76% of unpaid care work – cooking, feeding, caring for families – that keeps the world fed.

Work that is invisible & undervalued.

It’s time to value #FoodWork, paid & unpaid.

4/4 But exploitation is not inevitable.

When food workers organize, they win better pay, safer workplaces & stronger rights.

Good food should never depend on poverty wages, unsafe work or invisible labour.

Our food systems cannot function without workers. So why are so many exploited?

Low pay. Unsafe work. Insecure jobs. Wage theft. Forced labour.

Our new #FoodWork report exposes the exploitation running through the global food chain, and how to end it.

How did Canadian housewives become “housesoldiers”? And can food actually win wars? Read on!

Canadian Food Studies suggests you start with Jennifer Brady’s review of Ian Mosby’s first book, "Food Will Win The War: The Politics, Culture and Science of Food" (doi.org/10.15353/cfs...).

Getting local food to schools is tricky because of systematic disinvestment in school foodwork, poor kitchen infrastructure, and supply chain consolidation. BUT these trends can be reversed. US schools can and do pay local farmers to diversify their production localfoodeconomics.com/wp-content/u...

I was recently in a workshop on dysphagia and COPD. The people with living experience describe how exhausting and limited their diet has become, and the challenge of having a balanced nutritional diet. I never heard the term "foodwork" but that's exactly what they described.

"The cover image, taken from Carmen de Burgos's Nueva cocina práctica (1925), references one of the authors analyzed and prepares the reader to sit down to an interdisciplinary feast, as chef Ingram serves up knowledge on foodwork as a gendered expression of culture."
