I am interested in working with other members on

collaboration. The Backcasting to Achieve Food Resilience in the UK (BAFR-UK) project aims to identify interventions in the food system to make it less vulnerable to external shocks and tipping points over the long term. We are especially focusing on policy recommendations. To achieve these goals, we will work closely with key stakeholders and their representatives, including farmers, food producers, importers, distributers, retailers, citizens, NGOs and more. The project will build on stakeholders’ knowledge to deliver a transformation towards resilience.
