The ways we talk about food communicate more than simply our ‘personal preferences’, and can reinforce ideas about bodies, cultures, our own relationship to food, and our sense of connection.
We all experience consistent messaging surrounding food – whether through media, peers, family, or ‘experts’.
This workshop encourages participants to be deliberate and mindful in the language they use to talk about food within their programs and workplaces.
As with all of Food Matters Manitoba’s Community Outreach and Engagement programming, it is our hope and intention that workshops like Let’s Talk About Food serve to ‘break the ice’, providing support and resourcing for ongoing and necessary conversations about food security.
Let’s Talk About Food workshops are facilitated online or in-person.
