Urban food policy: a way forward for sustainable consumption?

Activity: Talk or presentation typesInvited talkProfessional

Description

For more than two decades, there have been sustained efforts in the EU to green the Common Agricultural Policy (CAP) but with limited results. This session addresses the reasons behind the inertia in the CAP, exemplified by the watering down of the Farm-to-Fork strategy. It critically evaluates Danish biodiversity policy initiatives under the CAP and discusses how effective climate measures can be linked to CAP. Finally, the session introduces urban food policy and discusses its potential to promote more sustainable food consumption.
