    All day

    This first gathering of activists, organisers and researchers  who are interested in looking at issues of food justice post the European Nyeleni Food Sovereignty Gathering of 2016 to ask questions pertaining to Food Justice in an era of significant change and upheaval.

    At this workshop we will:

    • Exchange experiences and identify common strategies
    • Identify who and what is missing from different strands of work
    • Take stock of what’s happening in Britain around “food justice for all”
    • Identify and plan for possible ways to work together, including how to resource  joint projects
