Safeguarding UK Food Security: A Call to Action
– Wye Stage
How prepared for food shocks is the UK? A new national report launched in February 2025 sets out a challenge: the need to take food shocks more seriously and to improve civil food resilience. Join the report’s author and the crisis expert in conversation with Executive Director of the Food Foundation Anna Taylor, to hear about the future of our national and global food systems, the threats, and how we ensure everyone gets the food they need.
Lang (Feeding Britain) is Emeritus Professor of Food Policy at City University London’s Centre for Food Policy, and has consulted for the WHO. Professor Sir David Omand was the first UK Security and Intelligence Coordinator and, before that, Director of GCHQ. His book How to Survive a Crisis uses intelligence strategies to explore how to spot crises early.
