    #93 Ending Childhood Hunger (Part 2 of 2) with Owen Burton from One Feeds Two

    #93 Ending Childhood Hunger (Part 2 of 2) with Owen Burton from One Feeds Two

    On the podcast we are continuing the critical conversation around child poverty and hunger that, quite frankly I’m embarrassed to have to be talking about in 2021. 


    Rather than complaining or pointing out a desperate situation I want to shine a light on some incredible initiatives. On that note, I want you to ponder on this:


    Can we use hunger to end hunger?


    This is the simple revolutionary formula that my next guest and his colleagues founded over 10 years ago. Owen Burton co-founded One feeds TwoA charitable organisation that partners with food brands and work to provide school meals to children living in poverty across the globe.


    Thus far, One Feeds Two's partners have donated over 10 millions school meals - and in 2021 alone, they hope to donate over 6 million school meals. The school meals are locally sourced, largely plant-based and typical of the local cuisine - "what the kids would be eating if they were eating at home".


    On the show today we talk about:

    • Owen’s travel and corporate background
    • The early foundations of one feeds two
    • Why school meals are magical and the impact on poverty
    • What we can learn from One feeds Two as it relates to child poverty in the UK
    • Owen’s current projects and his new drinks brand “Fount”

    Rapid Response: Build government back – better, w/Jen Pahlka (Code for America, USDR)

    In the US, local governments are leading the response to COVID-19 – making decisions and gathering data at a speed and scale never before seen. And many of them are asking Jen Pahlka for help. The founder and past chair of Code for America, she co-founded U.S. Digital Response, a nonpartisan group that matches experts with local governments to work on tech, comms and operations. She shares what she's seeing right now – and paints a bold, big-picture vision of what a modern government could do in the years to come. Interviewed by editor Bob Safian.
