The Three Biggest Challenges Facing the Food System, and How we Fix Them

Professor Corinna Hawkes, Director of the Centre for Food Policy, City University London The keynote lecture in the Food Governance Conference hosted by Sydney Law School and the Charles Perkins Centre at the University of Sydney ABSTRACT Everybody eats. Food is a lived experience. It inspires us, fills us with dread, brings us joy, and stress. It sustains us, and kills us. At the same time, food is distant, hails from the food system, out there, somewhere, causing “abstract” problems. Drought. Climate change. Obesity. Undernutrition. Foodborne disease. Exploited workers. To open the first Food Governance conference at the University of Sydney, Professor Hawkes will contend that making connections between these ‘big’ food systems outcomes and the ‘small’ intimate ways that we all experience food is key to the solutions. She will present a new vision of a people-centred approach in which problems are addressed by starting with the reality of people’s everyday lives and then working back into the food system. Professor Hawkes suggests that the three fundamental challenges for the food system are Language, Leadership and Alignment and show that changes to the way we talk, lead and govern will be needed to fix the global food system.
