BEYOND THE PLATE: Sustainable Approaches to Food and Food Systems marks the17th Human Welfare Conference, which has been organised annually by graduate students at Green Templeton College, University of Oxford, since 2008.

This year, we aim to explore food sustainability across multiple levels—personal, local, and global—while fostering interdisciplinary and transdisciplinary interactions among students, grassroots organisations, and senior researchers.

Our keynote speakers, Dr. John Ingram and Dr. Peter Scarborough, will each deliver lectures on food systems and sustainability, focusing on global and national approaches. Graduate students will deliver talks about their prominent research and there will be a Friendly Food Fair with the college kitchen, community-based organisations, and local social enterprises.

Complimentary lunch and refreshments are provided throughout the day.

Please note the ticket price is a deposit, which is refundable on the day upon attendance (£5 refund, excluding a small transaction fee).
