Beyond the Plate: Sustainable Approaches to Food and Food Systems
Green Templeton Human Welfare Conference 2025
Monday 19 May 2025 09:00 to 18:00Location: |
Green Templeton College |
This is the 17th Human Welfare Conference, which has been organised annually by graduate students at Green Templeton College since 2008.
This year, we explore food sustainability across multiple levels—personal, local, and global—while fostering interdisciplinary and transdisciplinary interactions among students, grassroots organisations, and senior researchers.
Our keynote speakers, Dr John Ingram (Food Systems Transformation Group, University of Oxford Environmental Change Institute) and Dr Peter Scarborough (Sustainable Healthy Food Group, Nuffield Department of Primary Care Health Sciences) will each deliver lectures on food systems and sustainability, focusing on global and national approaches. Graduate students will deliver talks about their prominent research and there will be a Friendly Food Fair with the college kitchen, community-based organisations, and local social enterprises.
Complimentary lunch and refreshments are provided throughout the day. Please note the ticket price is a deposit, refundable on the day upon attendance (£5 refund, excluding a small transaction fee).
