Zwolle, Overijssel, Netherlands

I dedicated my final semester of Global Project and Change Management to supporting MasterPeace’s FoodPrint Project in developing an educational food ecolabel inspired by Doughnut Economics. This label is not intended for the commercial market but rather as a tool for engaging European youth in learning about food sustainability through a systems-thinking lense. It highlights what makes a food product (un)sustainable from ecological, human wellbeing and animal welfare perspectives. To inform this project, my bachelor thesis focuses on identifying which sustainability criteria a food label should ideally cover to promote a food system that operates within planetary boundaries and upholds a just social foundation.           

Northwich, Cheshire West and Chester, England, United Kingdom

I am Nicola, from Cheshire in North West England. I am a recent graduate in Environmental Science which I studied online through the Open University. I am about to start a Masters program in Sustainable Food and Natural Resources with the Centre For Alternative Technology. I am a baker, working in a small but very busy independent bakery in Cheshire. I am always thinking about food in one way or another and since I completed my undergraduate degree I have wanted to expand what I learned about sustainable agriculture, soil health and making the food system equitable. I read Doughnut Economics recently after studying a systems thinking module for Environmental Management and want to learn more about how the food system fits in to the Doughnut. I want to stay working in the food industry, but hopefully looking at global supply chains.
