2023 The Future of Food Symposium

We are happy to announce our 2nd Future of Food Symposium Munich which will be held online on 30 September 2023. This year's symposium will be organized together with the German Alliance on Climate Change and Health on the following topic: "Global Perspectives on Sustainable and Resilient Food Systems Transformation"

While our food and land use systems have contributed to some of the world's most pressing challenges, from climate change and biodiversity loss to malnutrition and economic inequality, they also hold the keys to many solutions. By reimagining and reshaping these systems, we can move towards a more sustainable, healthy, and equitable future. Learn more about the current situation from our keynote speakers, be inspired by best practise examples and join our panelists in the discussion on suggestions for the future of our food.
