Urban Food Planning Seminar Series | The Influence of Ethics and Food Justice in the City

14 Jun 18:00
CIUL Auditorium


The 6th and final session of the Cycle of Seminars on Urban Food Planning, organized in partnership by  College of Food, Farming and Forestry (F3) and the Lisbon Urban Information Center (CIUL), will address the topic " The Influence of Ethics and Food Justice in the City" and will feature interventions by Hunter Halder (Re-Food), Jorge Cancela (FA-ULisboa) and Rute Saraiva (FD-ULisboa).

In cities, there is a paradoxical phenomenon of massification of food options and, at the same time, an increase in personalized food, a situation that reflects problems of social cohesion and food justice and raises serious questions in ethical terms, particularly in a context of sustained development and evident social and economic stratification. It is therefore important to reflect on the choices and role of the consumer in the food supply chain, new relationships between production and consumption, in particular in their relationship with land use planning and the potential of urban and peri-urban agriculture.

The session will take place on June 14, at 18h00, at the CIUL Auditorium - Rua Viriato, 13 - Picoas Plaza Núcleo 6-E, 1º 1050-227 Lisboa (map).  here).
