Description

freedom to choose.
The Royal Geographical Society (with IBG) Annual Conference, hosted at the University of Birmingham and chaired by Professor Patricia Noxolo (University of Birmingham, UK). The theme for this year's conference was Geographies of Creativity/Creative Geographies. It was my first major conference, and I enjoyed sharing some fieldwork perspectives on the Lagos food bank initiative through a decolonial Gastropolitics lens—examining how history continues to influence what is on our plates today, asking questions like who decides, what is valued as ‘good food’, and who benefits?
