Birmingham Food Council presents THE GAME – future food shortages and scarcities and food system preparedness – 10 October 2024 in Birmingham, UK

Email from Kate Cooper:

As you know, the Birmingham Food Council has a fine tradition in bringing people with diverse perspectives to join in in-depth, informed discussions on important matters — such as how can the UK prepare for us all have access to sufficient safe, nutritious food, given the existing and rapidly emerging threats to supplies.

Since 2018, we’ve been developing The Game in various iterations as a means to find ways to tackle this huge challenge. 

The latest running of it is immersive one-day scenarios workshop. We’d love you to be there:

  • on 10th October
  • kindly hosted by Mills and Reeve Solicitors at One Centenary Way, B3 3AY

You’d have the opportunity network with a diverse group of professionals, gain unrivalled foresight on the risks ahead . . . and to join our alumni network, a collective policy influence on preparedness planning at the heart of he UK food supply system.
