The Breadwinner
8 year old Webster Isheanopa Makombe's mother sends him on his first solo mission to get bread.
WEBSTER ISHEANOPA MAKOMBE is a food systems activist and nutrition advocate. He is a core group member of the Act4Food campaign, spearheading "valuing local and indigenous food knowledge and strengthening local food systems." He is also a youth leader with the Scaling Up Nutrition Movement (SUN). Webster graduated this year from the University of Zimbabwe Law School. His dissertation looked at the question of ‘the justiciability of the right to food in Zimbabwe's constitutional system’. A reader-turned-writer, Webster enjoys artistic expression in the form of literature and music when carrying out his advocacy work. He is also the curator of a mini-food festival under Act4Food in Zimbabwe called NhapiTapi Food Festival. The word ‘nhapitapi ‘is in his native language chiShona and loosely translates to "finger-licking good" in English.
