In this interview, Million Belay, coordinator at the Alliance for Food Sovereignty in Africa discusses food systems and demands social movements to mobilise for food sovereignty. 

Belay says: "Food is people's agenda. Those who suffer because of crisis in our food system are people: food producers, pastoralist, Indigenous Peoples... are suffering because they are losing their environment and livelihoods. So food is people's agenda, and whatever the corporation and governments are doing is actually harming the people, so people have to mobilise."
