Climate change, population growth and movement, cost of living pressures, animal welfare, seed monopolies, supply chain shortages, consumption and health… the list of challenges around food seems endless. Yet there is much thoughtful and positive work taking place to improve the health and sustainability of our food systems worldwide.

In this four-part seminar series, presented in partnership with All of Life Redeemed, an international platform of researchers will speak on their work in this area from a range of perspectives that ‘use research to do good for all’.

This event: Friday 27th May

Dr Jan van der Stoep

Jan is Endowed Professor of Christian Philosophy at Wageningen University & Research, The Netherlands. He is also affiliated to Ede Christian University of Applied Sciences, where he directs a research group on Faith and Work.

Philip Sampson
Whose world, whose sustainability? Recovering the interests of the planet

Philip originally studied mathematical physics, before spending time as a family therapist and in social science research. More recently his research has focussed on the archeology of evangelical Christian discourses about animals, and the history of animal advocacy.
