Aida Serik is a young agronomist and Slow Food activist dedicated to educating the younger generation in Kazakhstan.

Raising awareness about sustainable agriculture and healthy food is especially important in a country like Kazakhstan. The Green School project, led by the Bulat Utemuratov Private Foundation, has built greenhouses in 19 public schools and one college.

Excerpt:

Aida Serik is a 28-year-old woman living in Astana, the capital of Kazakhstan—an immense Central Asian country, the largest landlocked nation in the world, and one of the least populous, with an average population density of just seven inhabitants per square kilometer. In 2018, she won the Food for Change Challenge: Let’s Cultivate Climate Change Solutions launched by Slow Food. Her project, selected as the best submission from Central Asia, described how the Kazakh national dish, beshbarmak, is prepared. She was subsequently invited to Terra Madre 2018 to receive the award. It was there, in Turin, that she met her future husband, who is also a Kazakh Slow Food activist. They later married and soon after had a daughter. They jokingly refer to themselves as a Slow Food family.

It is no surprise, then, that Aida—who, incidentally, is an agronomist—has found particular inspiration in channeling her activism into food education. As a young parent, she has taken a strong interest in Slow Food’s School Gardens initiative. Over the past three years, the Slow Food Community of Astana Urban Producers has been developing school gardens, successfully creating 20 to date. Aida, the community’s spokesperson, places great importance on collaborating with and learning from others who run similar projects and is always eager to work together toward shared goals.
