In our third episode we chat to Candice Kelly, who is the lecturer and course convenor for the Food Security and Globalised Agriculture postgrad module. We caught up with Candice after she taught her module at the SI, and chatted to her about how the COVID-19 crisis is highlighting the serious food security issues in the country, what interesting initiatives have come out of this as a response to the exacerbated impact of COVID-19, and what we as individuals can start doing immediately to make a positive impact on some of these challenges.
