The Global-Hub on Indigenous Peoples’ Food and Knowledge Systems, a strategic and innovative think tank, gathered for the fourth time at FAO headquarters, in the Indigenous Peoples’ Territory, on 12–16 October.

More than 300 participants took part, including over 120 Indigenous and non-Indigenous experts and Indigenous Youth, from around 40 Indigenous Peoples’ organisations and 55 universities and research centres, across more than 40 sessions.

The week set out to reverse wrong narratives on Indigenous Peoples and their food and knowledge systems.

Is your science better than others? Indigenous Peoples’ knowledge is real science of sustainability.

Are you born vulnerable? Neither are Indigenous Peoples. The violation of their rights puts them in situations of vulnerability.

Indigenous Peoples’ way of moving across their Country demonstrates adaptability and sustainability.

The Global-Hub reaffirms that food should never be a means of pressure, division or conflict, but a source of life, dignity, solidarity and peace.

Monash University is a proud member of Global-Hub on Indigenous Peoples’ Food and Knowledge Systems.

Today, the Global-Hub on Indigenous Peoples' Food and Knowledge Systems starts its fourth in-person meeting at FAO headquarters in Rome.

Indigenous and non-Indigenous experts from all corners of the world are coming together to discuss Indigenous Peoples' food and knowledge systems and the role they can play in food, nutrition and resilience.
One of today's sessions is an open dialogue with the FAO Chief Scientist on knowledge co-creation and policy. Indigenous Peoples knowledge systems are built through observation, experience, testing and learning across generations. They also contribute to a growing body of published research.

Can dairy help protect your gut in the heat? Join our research study!

We are looking for endurance-trained adults (18-49) who can complete 2h of running at 60% max effort in 35°C to help advance exercise gastroenterology research, and to investigate the ability of a dairy intervention to reduce gut issues associated with exercise and exertional-heat stroke.

How this study can help you:
- Free full fitness and body composition assessment
- Insight into how your body responds to exercise and feeding during exercise (extremely helpful to help you train for competition!)
- All meals provided 1 day prior to each test and during test days
- All participants will receive a $100 gift voucher once their trials are complete
