Sustainability as a deep cultural phenomenon - an exploration of relations to sustainable food supply
Part of the Co-creation of Sustainable Food Supply Chains project: https://www.sustainablefood-sc.org/
Time/Date: May 11, 2026 / 9:00 EST/15:00 CET
Register: zoom registration
Description: This webinar presents an exploratory approach to understanding sustainability as a deep cultural phenomenon, focusing on how individuals relate to food and food supply chains across different cultural backgrounds. Drawing on narrative interviews enriched by photo elicitation, the study uncovers how values, emotions, perceptions, and personal meanings shape sustainability practices.
The session begins with an introduction to the conceptual framework, followed by the presentation of empirical insights from the interviews. Particular attention is given to identifying possible “deep leverage points” for transformation, those underlying cultural dimensions that influence sustainable behavior (Meadows 1999; Parodi 2024; Schäpke 2024). A reflective discussion on the methodological approach and key learnings will follow, before opening the floor for questions and exchange with participants.
