Food security: presentation to PM’s Strategy Unit
by Alex Evans | Dec 20, 2007
As promised a few weeks back, here’s the presentation on rising food prices that I gave the Prime Minister’s Strategy Unit a couple of weeks ago.
The Strategy Unit team working on food policy haven’t yet made any of their research public, but if / when they do, it will appear on the project web page here. Although the SU is primarily looking at the issue from a UK perspective, my presentation leads on the international dimensions – in particular the drivers of rising food prices, and the implications internationally. All comments very welcome…
