Food systems resilience in the aftermath of covid-19 - Should the future of food be global or local?
Pierre-Marie Aubert, IDDRI, and Izabella Teixeira, International Resource Panel and Brazil's former Minister of the Environment (2010-16), moderated by Samara Brock
Date: 5 November 2020, 13:00 - 15:00 CET
Location: Online, Uppsala
We will examine some of the vulnerabilities of the current food system and the pros and cons of short- and long-supply chains. What lessons do we learn in the aftermath of COVID-19? Is a more localised or globalised food system better for the environment? How do these conversations play out differently across the world?
We'll be practicing dialogue rather than debate, and having a conversation grounded in science, that will also bring about value-based reflections and conclusions.
The session will include a moderated conversation, questions from the audience, and break-out rooms to further discuss and engage with the topics.
We especially welcome SLU students, researchers and the extended Table community!
