Women, and more particularly, mothers, serve as the inspiration for the best chefs in the world, yet they are left out of the line-of-vision when we think of gastronomy. Some of the best cooks in the world are mothers, and in many cases, migrant mothers. How is it that we can engage that tradition, passion, and skill and use it as a tool to build bridges between communities and cultures? This is the goal of Donia Souad Amamra and her team.
Donia is the co-founder of Meet my Mama, a social start-up that serves a community of migrant women that are entrepreneurs in the catering industry in Paris. The goal of the project is to empower these women to engage their culinary gift to bridge communities and to share the beauty of their different cultures through food. Tune into Episode #4 of the Food Solidarity Podcast to hear Donia and stories of inspiration, innovation, and mama power. Link in our bio.
