Food is part of our identity and doesn't need words to tell a whole story. The power of food is still underutilized. For newcomers in our society, dishes can be a powerful way to tell their story.
Let us joined forces with the OKAN department of HTISA and DeLaSoul. Together, we highlighted young newcomers through their dishes. They delved into the recipes of their country of origin, worked with local and fair-trade ingredients, and were coached by top chefs. They presented the end result to fellow students.
In addition, the stories and recipes were also shared with a broader audience thanks to Oxfam world shops. In this way, we want to create more support for the people behind the dishes and also offer them opportunities that the world of food provides.
