About the event
Please note this workshop will take place online.
Creating a legacy that dairy farmers can be proud of has been highlighted as a key aspiration from those working in the sector. This includes improving and protecting the environment; creating a thriving, attractive and sustainable farming system for future generations; and playing a positive role in the community.
But in a sector where many farm businesses are struggling to survive what changes and support is needed to help dairy farm businesses thrive as well as regenerate the land and communities around them?
In this innovation workshop we will bring dairy farmers together to explore how we can create a thriving, attractive and sustainable dairy farming system for future generations that are fairer and more ethical for people animals and planet.
The Food Ethics Council Dairy Project
This workshop is organised by the Food Ethics Council Dairy Project. If you would like to be involved in the Dairy Project activities in 2023 please contact Abigail Williams at abi@foodethicscouncil.org.
The Food Ethics Council is a think-tank and charity that provides independent advice on the ethics of food and farming. Our mission is to facilitate a shift towards fair food systems that respect people, animals and the planet.
The Dairy Project is run by the Food Ethics Council and is about working with dairy farmers and other stakeholders across the dairy sector, to identify the barriers and opportunities for enabling fairer and more ethical dairy systems – and helping to overcome them.
