Resumen:

Despite the intrinsic connection between food and health, industrialised global food systems produce hunger, malnutrition, and chronic diseases. The Food Sovereignty (FS) movement offers a political-ecological alternative, centring local control and community rights; yet, health remains under-theorised in FS agendas. Drawing on literature and dialogue between the People’s Health and the FS movements around the 3rd Nyéléni Global Forum, this paper advances critical debates on the politics of food-related ill-health and structural inequalities. We examine pathways to strengthen and deepen linkages between FS, collective health approaches, and critical agrarian studies, thereby informing dialogues for equitable and sustainable systemic transformation.
