Recipes from around the World

Food, food, glorious food

Nich Woolf BEM

FMS has, throughout its existence, made grants to medical charities around the world. In the majority of countries that we deal with, food can be scarce due to poverty, warfare, or climate change. In the developed world we possibly have too much food and whichever world you live in health and food go hand-in-hand.

We are inviting people to submit recipes to our website to demonstrate the huge range of ways that people feed themselves on this planet. Some recipes will be based in poverty and others in varying degrees of excess, they will all reflect the societies and cultures of their origins.

Give us your recipes

We would love to have recipes from anyone in the charity, health or not for profit sectors, volunteers and workers. If possible, we would like at least one recipe from every country that an organisation works in. We are also interested in what charity workers eat whilst in a foreign country. Do they pine for the dishes of home, do they eat to align themselves with a foreign culture?

As we build up a body of recipes, we want to share a link to your websites so that everyone can see the project as it builds. This will be an open-source collection of recipes that can be used by any organisation. Recipes can be used for fundraising, research, education or any other purpose.
