About Nessie Reid

Hello! Nessie here. I am Director of the Global Diversity Foundation and an Associate Fellow at St Ethelburga’s Centre for Peace and Reconciliation. I live on an organic farm in West Wales and I am a Spiritual Ecologist with a focus on agroecology, food sovereignty, health and land connection within both the UK and abroad. I've worked in Indonesia, India, Japan and within Europe on local and Indigenous communities’ rights to land for growing food, as well as the preservation of traditional artistic and cultural practices. I created The Milking Parlour: an ongoing artistic discourse and set of performances and talks exploring our human relationship to food and agriculture’s impact on biodiversity and climate change. Through this, I explores the theme of food as a sacred act and ‘Art-vocacy’: the power of art for shifting perceptions around climate change and behaviour.
