I am an agricultural engineer (academic qualification) and anti-hunger activist (vocation) with experience on food security and nutrition policies and programmes, right to food advocacy and food sovereignty practices in Latin America, Africa and Europe. Currently, a PhD Research Fellow on food governance and agri-food transitions in the Universite Catholique de Louvain (Belgium). I am exploring the idea and praxis of food as a commonss, from a normative and heuristics point of view. Preparing an academic book on "Food as a Commons" with three co-editors and 30 authors to launch the debate at global level. Why is food not treated as a commons? Why is food not governed as a public good such as health or education?

In this Assembly, I would be interested in meeting other commoners, partners and colleagues that have an interest in food. So. count on me whether specific exercises on "Mapping the food commons" are envisioned as part of the concrete steps to walk the talk. I have just been uploaded an article to the Wiki of Commons Transition on The Food Commons Transition http://wiki.commonstransition.org/wiki/The_Food_Commons_Transition:_Collective_actions_for_food_and_nutrition_security
