Respect, Diversity, and the Fight for Food Sovereignty – A conversation with Mariann Bassey

Food is more than what ends up on our plates—it carries culture, identity, and the wisdom of generations. At the heart of the 3rd Nyéléni Global Forum, delegates from all over the world gather to share stories, strategies, and visions for a just and sustainable food system. In this conversation, we hear from Mariann Bassey, who represents the African region and the Respect and Diversity group at the 3rd Nyéléni Global Forum, about how these principles connect to food sovereignty, the power of communities to resist corporate control, and the ways traditional knowledge continues to shape the fight for nourishing, culturally rooted food.
