Publications
Shortly after every Westminster Food & Nutrition Forum seminar, a briefing document is produced. This is distributed to all delegates on the day as well as to our contacts in government, parliament and stakeholders in the education sector more widely.
A Forum publication provides a timely record of proceedings, and acts as a guide to the latest thinking on current policy issues for those unable to be at the event.
Each publication includes:
- All speeches from the day, with accompanying slides and speaker biographies
(subject to approval by speaker); - Transcripts of question and comment sessions;
- Supplementary articles from speakers and delegates; and
- Event information such as the delegate list and final agenda
Water security
TO BE PUBLISHED November 2010
This seminar will examine water use, availability and quality of water, and the management of water resources in the UK and around the world. Planned sessions examine to what extent improved water efficiency can help the food, farming, manufacturing and utilities sectors to become more sustainable. Discussion will consider the progress made on reducing water usage across the food and drink industry through the Federation House Commitment, as well as on reducing water usage across other industries, and identify priorities for further development. Sessions will also examine the impact of embedded water on the UK's water footprint, and look forward to the possible effects of global water scarcity on future trade and food availability.
