About the Speakers

 

Seminar Programme 1: Reducing food waste and upcycling ugly foods

Food wastage is a major issue in Singapore, with only 17% of food being recycled or reused. Ugly produce is a major contributor to food waste, and can be caused by over importing, shipment delays, man-made causes, and rules and regulations. This workshop will teach participants how to identify ugly produce, and how to cook and eat it. Participants will also learn how to reduce food waste in their own homes and businesses.


Participants are to bring the following items for this session: 

  • Water bottle and personal medication
  • Writing materials
  • A light jacket (in case it gets cold)
  • Small lunch box
  • Small butter knife/ bamboo knife
  • In the case of any allergies, nuts of any kind will not be provided for this session. 


Seminar Programme 2: Female empowerment workshop

Through an engaging and interactive drama workshop focused on self-empowerment, the session will explore the concept of healthy relationships and how they can fuel you to achieve dreams and goals. Participants will engage in reflective practice, share stories, play games and participate in drama activities where they can uplift and further encourage each other. Participants will benefit from the opportunities to learn and strengthen their collective journey towards personal growth.


Participants are to bring the following items for this session:
