With a specific focus on organic food and fair trade movements, it adopts an interdisciplinary approach, drawing from Communication for Development, Social Change, Agri-Food Studies, and Economic Geography. This comprehensive approach is further enriched by a participatory methodology, which unveils the voices of Indian farming communities, small European businesses, and UK-based consumers. Through direct and mediated communication processes, the book showcases the pivotal role of communication in fostering sustainable development. These processes encompass trade relations, self-representation, and the exchange of information and knowledge via the digital realm. By exploring these interactions, the book unveils the indispensable role of communication in constructing a holistic understanding of sustainable development. Moreover, it advocates for smaller, self-sustained projects and initiatives that prioritize the voices and localized experiences of the people on the ground. This transformative approach empowers individuals and communities to contribute to a more sustainable and equitable future, paving the way for a brighter and more sustainable world.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 330g\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDimension\u003c\/strong\u003e: 210 x 148 (mm)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eISBN-13\u003c\/strong\u003e: 9783030461218\u003cbr\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eEdition number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1st ed. 2020\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Maria Touri","offers":[{"title":"Paperback \/ softback","offer_id":44103322435834,"sku":"9783030461218","price":38.42,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0522\/4297\/2845\/products\/1646301989813_book.jpg?v=1646943654","url":"https:\/\/shulphink.com\/products\/sustainable-development-and-communication-in-global-food-networks-lessons-from-india-9783030461218","provider":"Shulph Ink","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
