WFF Quebec Chapter Co-Founders Sienna Corral (Partnerships Lead) & Lila Sonmaz (MEL Head)

Sienna Corral, Partnerships Lead, and Lila Sonmaz, Head of Monitoring, Evaluation, and Learning, are co-founders of the World Food Forum Quebec Chapter, an FAO initiative connecting young leaders working on food security and sustainability. In this part two conversation, Sienna and Lila open up about their very different paths into food advocacy, how they measure whether their work is actually making a difference, and why you don't need a job title in the food industry to already be part of the system. You'll also learn ways on how you can get involved in food advocacy even as a student in school.  --- Shownotes --- TIMESTAMPS 00:00 - Intro 01:37 - Chapter Mission Recap 02:51 - Lila's Path Into Food Systems 04:17 - Sienna's Path Into Food Systems 05:55 - Sienna's Role: Partnerships Lead 06:54 - Lila's Role: Measuring Impact 08:31 - Chapter Partners & Agri-Food's Scope 11:34 - What a Win Looks Like 13:09 - Chapter Events & Launch Party 14:39 - Who Can Get Involved 15:37 - Sustainable Gastronomy Week Results 18:02 - Current Projects & Proud Moments 19:23 - How Many WFF Chapters Exist 22:22 - Is the Food System Working? 25:10 - The Power of Language 26:48 - Making Agri-Food Feel Accessible 28:19 - Moving From Caring to Acting 30:11 - Empowering Youth Involvement 33:02 - Different Levels of Involvement 34:41 - Final Advice: Start Small --- 📙 Career Guides 💭 Career Advice --- CONNECT WITH OUR GUESTS 💼 Sienna Corral LinkedIn 💼 Lila Sonmaz LinkedIn 💼 World Food Forum Quebec Chapter LinkedIn 🌐 World Food Forum Website CONNECT WITH US 📸 Instagram 🎵 TikTok 💼 LinkedIn
