Food Lives in Tower Hamlets

We produced a short 8-minute film to introduce some of our research findings and share some of our methods from the Food Lives project. The aim of the project is 'to reimagine how food policy, food products and food supply chains can be developed' in an effort to 'address a lack of access to healthy, culturally appropriate sustainable food.'

Shazna and Sajna are community researchers from British Bangladeshi backgrounds and live in Tower Hamlets.

Our project is part of a larger study called FoodSEqual, funded by UK Research and Innovation (UKRI) and led by the University of Reading.
