We were honoured to have Prof Mary Lawhon from The University of Edinburgh whose incisive reflections on theorising from/with/on the Global South, shared insightful presentation, further foster us to think more critically about knowledge production practice in Southern context.

I am deeply grateful to Prof Mary Lawhon and everyone who attended and contributed their experiences and questions. Our dialogue is far from over: we will reconvene in early June for a follow‑up workshop featuring Prof Colin McFarlane from Durham University- stay tuned!

Understanding these changes and disparities in food availability is crucial. Community understanding of shifts in food access can foster resilience against future risks, building an equitable and just neighbourhood food environment for all.
