The Southteast Asia Palate How Migration Shapes Culinary Trends

MORE >>

In addition to sharing a similar historical background as post-colonial countries, Southeast Asian countries also share a distinctive culinary identity. Geographical factors, migration, and other social-cultural encounters that have occurred over the centuries have influenced the likeness of culinary flavors in this region. These resemblances are not just a matter of taste, but they also represent the values of the people of Southeast Asia. In this session, we'll discuss the traces of culinary similarities across Southeast Asian societies, and how they can serve as a key asset for future cultural products, helping to strengthen ties between Southeast Asian countries.

The Bittersweet Taste of Nostalgia

MORE >>

It would be impossible to talk about reminiscing of the past without mentioning food nostalgia. It is a powerful emotion that transport us back to the past, connecting us with people and places we hold dear, and evoking our emotions and cultural identity. Food patterns are specific to cultures and ethnic identity. Recipes are in a way a manifestation of the sociocultural environment.

We can use food as a language to communicate and reflect upon desire, identity, and power. Therefore we invite you to join us on this journey as we explore our past to better understand the future.

From Ancient Grains to Future Farms Exploring Traditional Ways for Food Sustainability

MORE >>

In the pursuit of ensuring national food security, the government has introduced various massive-scale programs in the form of food estates. Large areas of land have been cleared and cultivated to become national food barns. However, these mega projects have created many conflicts, whether with local communities or with mother nature itself. On the other hand, a number of food activists have carried out a series of movements to raise public awareness about alternative food sources, reducing our dependence on the market and the state. One of the ways food activists campaign for alternative food security is by learning and re-approaching the ancient knowledge of Indonesia's ancestors. In this session, we will learn more about the efforts in exploring traditional food knowledge to attain food security in the future.
