IFSTAL London event 7: ‘Decision makers and influence in food systems – a critical engagement’

February 25, 2016 @ 5:00 pm - 7:00 pm

Please join us for the 7th event in the Innovative Food Systems Teaching and Learning (IFSTAL) programme. IFSTAL is a collaborative, interdisciplinary, cross-university food systems training programme for postgraduate students, linking with the work place to improve future human, animal and environmental health.

At the IFSTAL Event 7 in London, Dr Barbara Haesler from LCIRAH, Dr Claire Marris and Prof Tim Lang from the Centre for Food Policy at City University London will tell us about their experiences of being involved in informing and researching interventions to shape the food system. The audience then will have the opportunity to work in multidisciplinary groups and critically engage with different food system governance initiatives (i.e. initiatives that seek to change or reform the wider food system in some way). Attendees are encouraged to bring a laptop or tablet for the group activity. A prize will be offered to the winning group and the session will be followed by an informal drinks and nibbles reception.

There will be simultaneous events happening across the country in IFSTAL’s partner institutions: Oxford University, Reading University and Warwick University. In London, this event will be hosted by City University London  and LCIRAH (LSHTMRVCSOAS). If you would like to attend the lecture at any of the other IFSTAL locations please visit our website for more information.
