A facilitated discussion with our guest speakers will explore the dilema we, as conciencous consumers of food, face in our everyday interactions with the food system. We know that our food choices impact the environment, animal welfare, broader society and our health. Our knowledge about the way food is grown and raised and the waste it produces from paddock to plate presents an ever-challenging dilema. Our speakers will discuss how they manage the tensions between the convenience of Australia's dominating industrialised food system with their mission to mobilise an ethical and sustainable food movement.
Paul West
Paul West is a chef, broadcaster and sustainable agriculture advocate. Growing up in regional Australia has helped define a character that has seen Paul learn his trade in one of Australia’s premiere restaurants and then shoot to prominence as the host of the wildly popular River Cottage Australia, as well as hosting marquee programs for the national broadcaster, the ABC, such as Gardening Australia, Backroads and Catalyst. Paul is a born communicator and has entertained audiences from outback stockyards to parliament house. Paul currently resides in Melbourne with his wife and two young sons, where he writes, travels to perform at food festivals and contributes on a regular basis to the ABC across their platforms.
Erin Rhoads
Erin Rhoads is the curious lady behind The Rogue Ginger, one of Australia's popular eco-lifestyle websites. She has been writing about her journey to give up plastic and reduce rubbish since 2013. A sought-after writer and speaker, Erin is on a mission to engage with individuals to redefine what is waste and how we can create less of it. She is a regular contributor on ABC Radio; shares skills and ideas to hundreds of audience members at her presentations and helps organise and assist environmental action groups. Her first book Waste Not has been a huge success and was released in July 2018.
