European Week of Regions and Cities - Navigating Polarised Narratives: Understanding Regional Food Systems in the EU
During the 22nd European Week of Regions and Cities, ICLEI Europe, together with the Committee of the Regions, Re-imagine Europa, the European Food Forum and the Novo Nordisk Foundation, will host the session "Navigating Polarised Narratives: Understanding Regional Food Systems in the EU".
After analysing the polarising narratives of regional food system realities across EU Member States, the session’s objective will be the creation of regional multi-stakeholder platforms designed to catalyse cooperation in transitioning local food systems towards sustainability, addressing the evolving challenges and opportunities of tomorrow's agrifood landscape while maintaining regional distinctiveness.
Speakers include:
Irene Tolleret, Former Chair of EFF and Vice President of the French Leaders Association
Marcin Napiorkowski, Mythologies Scholar, and Narrative Scientist at Re-Imagine Europa
Anna Bruen, Senior Expert at ICLEI Local Government for Sustainability
Piotr Całbecki, Governor, Kujawsko-Pomorskie Region, Committee of the Regions
The session will be held on 9th October, 2024 from 16h30 to 18h00 at the Committee of the Regions, Jacques Delors Building, Brussels
