Who we helped

A collaborative international virtual exchange took place between Petit Gourmet in Uruguay founded by Ashoka fellow Diego Ruete, young people in the UK led and supported by journalist Andrew Cleminson, and Good Food Matters. They shared food, languages, and cultural experiences as the start of a growing collaboration and future events or similar initiatives.

What we did
