CARE LAB COLOGNE – Care deficits in food rescue and experimenting with Breadline
In this workshop, I’d like to invite participants to think through subjective experience in order to identify the challenges of achieving food security for an individual or a household. Our food needs can be very different – availability, access and use can mean different things to different people. You can work with your own experience, or those you have intimate knowledge of – imagine/ map out their food journeys and identify the gaps where care – cannot be practised or accessed.

Her research in urban food systems and critical cultural analysis on food waste is a theoretical and technical endeavour underpinned by an interest in ethical practices of care. She won the Fulbright Senior Scholar Award and undertook research at MIT in 2018-2019 where she developed Breadline – HK’s first public digital platform for food rescue. She collaborates closely with community organisations and works in an interdisciplinary and impact-driven manner.
