Shaping the future of food together is all about #crossingborders. Crossing borders of your team, organisation, sector, country, culture. ...within yourself, outside of your comfort zone, stretching your belief system.
When the task at hand seems to big to handle 👉 make it small, not small in impact, but #practical and #personal. Take action. See what you can do, in your role, connect, work to understand the other, cross borders of your thinking, build your coalitions and work on resilience, together.
✨ And that is what our partners have been doing and keep on doing ✨#Practice #leadership rules! ✨Our partner event last week thursday was for and with our partners, during the 4 community meetings and the wider plenary event we worked on content, put our partners in the spotlight, whilst at the same time establishing new connections and re-enforcing familiar ones.
Some fun facts:
👉 Formal launch of the Healthier Food Community. In the community, we work collectively on making it easier for people to access a healthier product offering – wherever they may shop or eat.
Our next Healthier Food Community meeting will take place 1 February 2024 - DM Judith van der Horst-Graat to join: https://rb.gy/yimeh2
👉 Marnix Kluiters' talk was all about #resilience. At 20, he suffered a severe eye condition that caused him to lose the central part of his vision in six months. But that didn’t stop him. From larger transitions to a very personal one, and back. Check his Ecosofie podcast!
👉 We welcomed our 140th Protein Community Partner: Andy Parrott from the Hain Daniels Group.
👉 Festive launch by Guido Landheer of the publication of (many of) our partners working cross-sectoral on innovation in circular agrifood & biomass. check it out! https://lnkd.in/eKYZsUjz
