The 7th edition of the international gastronomic forum Alimentarte was recently held in Bogotá, Colombia.
A noteworthy representative from Spain was in attendance, chef Xanty Elías, who participated in the roundtable discussion entitled “The social impact of gastronomy.”
The idea behind this discussion was that social impact is very important for creating change, in both consumers and also in the industry’s production chain.
Elías received the prestigious Basque Culinary World Prize in 2021 for his project entitled “Los niños se comen el futuro,” which aims to incorporate gastronomic culture and healthy eating as a subject in primary schools.
