Call for papers – ‘Sustainability in the Food Supply Chain: Challenges and the Role of Law & Policy’
The ‘Sustainability in the Food Supply Chain’ roundtable workshop is calling for papers from persons interested on the topic of sustainability and food security within the food supply chain. Participants from academia, practice, policy, business, farming, or the third sector are all invited to apply.
This workshop is a collaboration between four law schools in the UK and Ireland, and it is funded by the Society of Legal Scholars and Edinburgh Law School. The workshop will explore the role of law in addressing regulatory challenges and opportunities in food supply chains; it will also assess the role of commercial & contract law and their limitations, actual or perceived, in achieving sustainability and food security.
To apply, please submit a title and abstract of 300-400 words by email with the header “Sustainability in the Food Supply Chain” to Simone.Lamont-Black@ed.ac.uk. The deadline for the submission of abstracts is 5 April 2024.
