As world leaders gather in Belém for the UN Climate Change Conference (COP30), they will find more than just food for thought on the menu.
Indigenous chef and activist Tainá Marajoara will serve dishes rooted in ancestral Amazonian traditions, showcasing the biodiversity and spirituality of Brazil's Indigenous Peoples.
All dishes will be prepared with over 10 tonnes of agroecological ingredients sourced through fair and sustainable food systems.
Our kitchen will feature canhapira, an Indigenous Marajoara dish that remains part of local cuisine today.
The dish comes from the Marajoara people, an Indigenous group native to Marajó Island, where the Amazon meets the Atlantic.
