  • Recipes for Change launched in 2014 with a crucial mission – to raise awareness about the impacts of climate change on culinary traditions and the farmers behind them. Since then, the programme has showcased dozens of recipes from around the world in partnership with world-class chefs. Each recipe serves as a window into the rural communities and cultures that work alongside IFAD.

    In this episode, we reflect on a decade of Recipes for Change with some of the chefs behind the programme's success. Join us as we catch up on the latest in sustainable cooking and look ahead to the new year together.
