Food Cultures and Practices Workshop

Re-imagining Urban Futures through Waste and Circularity.

In a time of growing environmental and social pressures, it is essential to rethink how cities can operate more equitably and sustainably.

This workshop explores how food waste, circularity and urban governance intersect to shape the cities of tomorrow, offering fresh insights and collaborative discussion on creating more just and resilient urban futures.

During this interactive session, we will reflect on how communities, policies and systems can work together to drive social and environmental change.

This will be a great opportunity to network with likeminded sustainability researchers and practitioners and explore collaboration possibilities in upcoming research projects.
