Sabine Weiland was invited as a key note speaker at the Future Food Symposium, held in Utrecht, Netherlands. The annual symposium took a closer look at the ‘EAT-Lancet Report’.<\/p>\n

In January of this year the EAT-Lancet report made the headlines by advocating a radical reconfiguration of food production, consumption and governance to make our food system sustainable and future-proof. Ever since, debates have ensued on the report\u2019s diagnoses and recommendations- ranging from accusations of the report being too critical on the role of meat in our consumption pattern to concerns about the impacts of the report on farmer\u2019s livelihoods and access to food.
Future Food used its annual symposium to critically assess the report and investigate its relevance for research and policy-making on food systems.\u202fIs there a solid scientific basis for the EAT-Lancet recommendations? What does EAT-Lancet mean\u202ffor our research agendas?\u202fWhat does it mean for food and agricultural policy making? The symposium will kick off with a key note by one of the EAT Lancet reports authors, followed by three\u202finteractive break-out sessions that focus on sustainable production, healthy consumption and governance.<\/p>\n
