The Power of Public Food – How the public plate can help build a green recovery

23/03/2021 @ 6:00 pm - 7:30 pm

Public food is not merely calories on a plate, but a powerful tool for social, environmental and economic change. As Scotland plans for a green recovery, food provides huge potential for positive change. Public procurement of sustainable and local food is one of the most effective mechanisms at our disposal to drive transformation in food production and supply, and to prioritise the wider community wealth building agenda.

Join Food for Life Scotland’s webinar to hear how public food is already making positive change internationally and right here in Scotland. With guest speakers:

  • Betina Bergmann Madsen

  • Dr Audrey Sutton
