Food for Thought
A feast of ideas to end hunger.
“Food for Thought” is not merely about sustenance — it embodies a commitment to combat hunger through the power of ideas. At TEDxJohannesburgSalon: Food for Thought, on Wednesday 22 November 2023 at the The Forum in Bryanston, Johannesburg, we curated a diverse array of solutions and possibilities, sparking inspiration and fostering collaboration to tackle food insecurity.
Through the TEDx format of sharing "ideas worth spreading," our event presented unconventional perspectives, cutting-edge research, and inspired success stories related to hunger and food security. Supported by the United Nations World Food Programme (WFP), we challenged traditional thinking and explored new approaches and technologies that promised to make a significant impact in ending hunger across Africa.
