How We Support Ukraine
1 June 2022
We were recently asked what the WFTA is doing to support Ukraine. While we are a non-political organization, there are still other ways that we show our support, namely:
- We shared multiple times a request from the Ukraine tourist guide association for cash donations to help tourist guides in need
- We commissioned a Ukraine Taste of Place report to help preserve Ukrainian culinary culture
- We featured Ukrainian culinary culture items across social media to raise awareness of the country’s unique culinary treasures
What are you doing to show your support for Ukraine? Whatever you can do, our friends in Ukraine appreciate your generous support.
This article introduces Francesc-Fuste-Forne, the newest recipient of the prestigious culinary tourism industry Lifetime Achievement Award bestowed by the World Food Travel Association.
In this episode number 73 of our Taste of Place podcast, we speak with Allison Zinder, an American living in Paris. We speak about French food, culture and language, and why the French culinary legacy is so profound.

In this episode number 72 of the Taste of Place podcast, we speak with Audrey Kelly. Audrey is the co-owner and head pizza maker at Audrey Jane’s Pizza Garage in Boulder, Colorado in the USA, which she runs with her brother, Peter. After studying pizza-making under Tony Gemignani, she opened her restaurant, and achieved quick success, with the restaurant having been been featured on the Food Network; the Travel Channel; and Diners, Drive-Ins and Dives. Audrey won first place in the Pizza in Teglia competition in Naples, Italy, and has been featured in the New York Times and NPR. As a mother of twin boys, she balances family life with expanding her business, including plans for a second location. Audrey also grew up in a family of bakers, so she knows a thing or two about making dough!
