Farmer. Scientist. Storyteller.
Ngayi, hello and welcome. My name is Anika Molesworth, and my home is the semi-arid heartland of Australia. I live and work on Wilyakali land, the traditional home of the Wilyakali people, iki kirri kirrinana Wilyakali.
About me.
It was the decade-long Millennium drought on my family's farm that sparked my interest in climate change, and to ask "How are we going to feed a rapidly growing global population well, in a climate challenged world?" With a passion for rural communities and healthy ecosystems, I am committed to help create sustainable and vibrant farming landscapes now and for the future. I have a PhD in agricultural science, speak and write on agro-ecological systems resilience, and have worked for many years in international farming development.
My dedication to raising awareness of climate change impacts on farms, and most importantly, what action can be taken to reduce emissions and adapt to changing conditions has gained widespread notability. My career has taken me around the world to every continent (including Antarctica!), meeting with farmers, global leaders and royalty. As a sought-after keynote speaker and educator, I bring heartfelt warmth, authenticity and optimism to complex global challenges.

Cultivating change.
I work with change-makers, status quo-breakers, and vision-chasers. An energized community who ask better questions of problems in the food system and seek out innovative solutions. I strive to help create a better tomorrow.
My ethos is to engage, educate and empower, and to do this with positive impact I am involved in many and varied activities.

Author.
Over the past few months I have been bringing together stories and ideas from farmers, nutritionists, climate scientists, chefs, and social entrepreneurs, to deliver a book with compelling vision for improving the food system.
As the world changes the food system must evolve, so we need to seek new information and improve our understanding of how our world works to ensure the best human interaction with it. The book explores both the challenges facing food producers and consumers, and what every person can do to play a positive role through the meal on their plate.
