From pitchfork to fork: What can be done to achieve food sustainability? by Christophe Lavelle

Paris

Our diet is highly dependent on our environment, which in turn is influenced by intense human activity resulting from producing, transforming and transporting food. From agricultural practices to food behaviour, this conference will provide the opportunity to discuss the ecological, economic and political challenges with which we are faced in order to preserve the quantity, quality and variety of what we are putting on our plates.
