Selected participants of the Food Systems e-course are invited to transform their insights into a concise, compelling blog. This guide offers practical direction on shaping your ideas, and preparing your blog for publication on NFPConnects.

As part of the Food Systems e-course, participants who express their interest during the e-course and are selected to contribute are invited to write and publish a blog reflecting on their learning journey, professional experience, and insights related to food systems.

To make the writing process easier and more enjoyable, we have created a short video guide that takes you step by step — from identifying a strong topic to shaping it into a clear, compelling, and engaging blog.

Why These Blogs Matter

This is not an academic assignment. It is an opportunity.

An opportunity to reflect on what inspired you most during the e-course, connect course insights to your own work, community, or country context, share practical examples and lessons learned, contribute to a growing conversation on food systems

Your voice, your experience, and your perspective are what make your blog meaningful.

You may also explore insightful blogs written and published by participants from previous editions: 2024 and 2025 Blogs on Food Systems.
