We organise an innovative programme of events throughout the year that allow people to explore the most challenging ethical issues we face today, from power in the food system to the urgency of climate change. Created to be inclusive and safe spaces, we encourage our audiences to participate, share and interact through discussion workshops and original talks.
Our Food Policy on Trial events explore selected emerging food policy ideas at inquiry-style sessions. Expert witnesses provide evidence and are then questioned by both a Food Ethics Council jury panel and members of the audience. Those attending can make their own considered judgements of whether the policy idea ‘on trial’ is likely to contribute to or hinder progress towards healthy, fair, environmentally sustainable, humane food and farming.
Food Talks is a quarterly series of events designed to stimulate debate and empower people to take action on critical and contentious food issues. Past topics have included creating better urban food systems, how to deliver a growing food revolution and how to get people hooked on sustainable fish. The evenings run from 6.30-8.45pm at the Impact Hub Kings Cross. Please join us!
Our Business Forum is a community of leaders in food and farming working to address the big issues of the day, gaining unique insights from expert speakers and food industry peers. Held bi-monthly at a top London restaurant, it provides an opportunity to explore ethical questions around emerging technologies, food and farming policy, fairness in value chains and other core concerns for food and farming businesses.
