The Missing Middle of a Resilient Food System Transformation
The journey to net zero necessitates the development of a resilient and sustainable UK food system that provides healthy diets for all. This presentation delves into a research project focused on understanding the intricate relationship between healthy diets, sustainable food systems, and the net-zero transition. A key aspect of this research is exploring the concept of ‘perverse’ systemic resilience within the food system. The project is one of the activities funded through that Agrifood4NetZero Network+ and is interested in challenging assumptions on transformation, and informing policy decisions and practices that can enhance the system’s resilience. The session will also involve an interactive component where participants will be invited to contribute their insights, particularly on visions of what a net zero future looks and feels like from their perspectives.
