In this Step, you are introduced to Astron, Fani, Poppy, and Sai who are taking part in a workshop, led by Andrew and Jurgen, who discusses the complex issues surrounding the palm oil controversy, and where participants hear about various stakeholders’ points of view.

This video captures the particpants initial thoughts about palm oil, before the workshop started. After watching the video, consider the following questions: Do you agree with what they say? Is there a common thread? Is there anything that resonates with you?

Try answering the same video questions yourself and share them in the comments area:

  • Do you avoid or seek out palm oil when you do your shopping?
  • Do you think palm oil is good or bad?

We want to thank Astron, Fani, Poppy, and Sai for participating in the workshop and sharing their ideas on film.
