Be prepared - Civil food resilience in the face of change

Be prepared - Civil food resilience in the face of change.

What happens when the food system falters? From climate change and global trade disruptions to war and resource scarcity, our food supply faces increasing pressure — but how ready are we for the shocks ahead?

In this compelling talk, leading food policy expert Professor Tim Lang (author of Just in Case: 7 steps to narrow the UK civil food resilience gap) explores the idea of civil food resilience — how citizens, communities, and governments can work together to build fair and sustainable systems that can withstand crisis.

Drawing on decades of research and policy experience, Lang challenges us to rethink food security not as a technical issue, but as a matter of democracy, justice, and civic responsibility. Join us to imagine what true preparedness might look like — and what role we can all play in feeding the future.

The talk will be followed by an audience Q&A chaired by Beth Bell (Food Ethics Council and Belfast Food Partnership).
