Research Project Food for Justice

Food for Justice (2019-2025) was a junior research group funded by the German Federal Ministry of Education and Research (BMBF). Food for Justice looked into social mobilization targeted at injustices in food systems and into social and political innovations that address inequalities undermining food security such as class, gender, race, ethnicity, or nationality. It was based at the Institute for Latin American Studies of Freie Universität Berlin from 2019 to 2022. Following the appointment of project leader Renata Motta to the professorship “Society, Culture and Communication in Ibero-America”, the group continued its research at the HCIAS in 2023 until its end.
