The MAZI Project

MAZI (μαζί) means together in Greek. This community initiative believes that we can challenge food inequality in Bristol, together.

MAZI's vision is a world where access to sustainable and tasty food is not a privilege or predetermined by your social class or background. Their mission is to challenge Bristol's food inequality by connecting disadvantaged young people with Bristol’s rich, independent food culture. What are their three pillars? Inclusivity, social justice and community.

Inclusivity: Creating a world where everyone can enjoy the power of food and are included in the conversation around it, no matter what's their social class or background.

Social justice: Contributing towards the fight against food poverty, sustainable food production, and the needs of the young people they work with.

Community: Working with the local community to contribute to growing the local economy and building a network of diverse connections, dedicated to making the world a better place. Their cookery workshops which work with disadvantaged members of the community do just this.
