Food is a necessity in our daily lives, and as such, it plays a crucial role in shaping sustainable futures. Food systems and food production have a significant dual role in the ongoing environmental crisis: they are both contributors to and victims of it. This episode explores the theme of transitioning to sustainable and responsible food systems and the ways to promote this transition. Universities, as research institutions, play a key role in providing knowledge about sustainable food while also having the potential to develop sustainable food solutions in their daily campus operations. As an example of this kind of activities, this episode introduces how the university of Turku in Finland has engaged in awareness-building with its Responsible Food on Campus theme week. Pilvi Posio is a senior researcher at the University of Turku, Finland. She works as a senior researcher in the project MOOC for Sustainability: Empowering Global Campuses coordinated by the Finnish University Network for Asian Studies. Saska Tuomasjukka is a senior researcher at the Nutrition and Food Research Center at the university of Turku with a long-term experience on nutrition and food research. He was one of the main organizers of the Responsible Food on Campus theme week at the university of Turku in October 2024. Want to become a Future Sustainability Champion within your institution?
