It has a narrative built on food that contains ingredients that are difficult to swallow and that are not good for us or the planet. But there is another way of eating that has not been at the center of the table.
And if we could help write the story with another flavor?
And if we could give real food the space it deserves?
In Poliniza we exchange knowledge, inspiration and point out ways to bring real food - and the truth of food - to the center of the table.

WE NEED TO SPREAD WHAT IT IS
- AND WHAT IT IS NOT - TRUE FOOD
Without knowing how it is made, where it comes from, what it contains and the impacts that the food we eat produces, we will not be able to face the urgent challenges facing our world.
Therefore, we need to bring this debate to the center of the table, disseminate other narratives, demystify taboos and emphasize alternatives to
an increasingly wide audience.
engage
Creating narratives is not something to do alone. We need more voices and projects to thicken the broth of discussions. With creativity, the will to transform realities and a dash of audacity, we can amplify and capillarize our actions more and more and thus POLLINATE messages to fill our hives with the necessary tools to move forward together. The greater the food consciousness, the more powerful our story will be!

UNITED IS SOMETHING HARD TO STOP!
to transform
IN OUR
DISHES, FOOD
THAT CHANGES THE
WORLD!
To have a healthier, more sustainable, fairer food system accessible to all, we need to create a recipe that unites affection and action - what I know about what I eat and what I know about the system behind what everyone eats - or still why some eat and others dont. That's why it's important to understand both the impact of our individual choices and the possibilities and ways to be agents of transformation and advocate for a change in the food system.
We bring to the conversation trailblazers who raise the food flag as a way to change the world: in research, audiovisual, written journalism, podcasts, study groups, struggles and militancy, and much more!
