Connected (sustainability) histories and futures of the global Soyacene
 

Brazil and The Netherlands
A project on the history of soy production in Brazil and soy use in the Netherlands, from the 1950s until today.  Different regions across the globe face grave challenges that may be at once highly diverse and highly interconnected. The research project SOY STORIES investigates diverse Brazilian and Dutch histories connected by soy, and studies how a connected diversity perspective can contribute to imagining more inclusive sustainable futures.

Study connections

Build new approaches
