Food, future, city
A global vision for man and the planet's survival 9 February 2021 – 9 March 2021
If food is a basic necessity for an ever-growing population, producing healthy and sustainable food accessible to all is a goal that requires us to engage all of the cultural, scientific and technological resources at our disposal. How is research into the food of the future progressing? How are cities preparing to ensure fair and sustainable access to food? These are some of the questions that we will try to answer during the three events in the series.
