9th Cross-disciplinary Workshop on Sustainability

Sustainability Aula Jardín and Paseo de la Fontana
"Sustainable Food. Protecting Health and the Planet"
 

The objective of the ninth edition of the Cross-Disciplinary Workshop on Sustainability is to take an interdisciplinary look at sustainable food and analyse the link between healthy eating and protecting the planet.

Through student presentations and by listening to and conversing with experts from different disciplines, we will explore issues such as: How does food waste relate to social justice? How is it that in 2017 there are 795 million people suffering from severe malnutrition? Is ecological agriculture sustainable? What is the link between diet and climate change?
