In this episode of Sense-Making in a Changing World, I am joined by the wonderful Stacia Nordin - a registered Dietician, and co-founder of NeverEndingFood in Malawi where she has been living 25 years, after coming to Africa with the US Peace Corp to work in nutrition education with HIV sufferers .
Never Ending Food focuses on permaculture designs with indigenous resources for sustainable nutrition. There are hundreds of indigenous resources in Malawi (and wherever you are, too) that are foods, medicines, fuel, fibres - and everything else we need for an active and healthy life.
Stacia has created an abundance of resources that make permaculture nutrition accessible - a freely downloadable Sustainable Nutrition manual, flyers and drawings. She has been a sustainable nutrition advisor to the world food program, the FAO, and USAID
I recently collaborated with Stacia (and others) to launch the global Permaculture Nutrition Network and webinar series . You can watch our first event here.
Stacia’s work is inspiring - and it is fascinating learning from her experience of applying permaculture for decades in places where it’s the difference that makes the difference.
I’ve known of Stacia's work for a long time, so I’m delighted to be collaborating with her now in the Permaculture Nutrition place - a key focus particularly for the refugee communities I work with every day.
