A seed contains both history and future!

Lecture

Good to know
The Plant Change Day will take place between 11:00–15:00.
Organizer
University of Gothenburg in collaboration with Kulturhuset Kåken

In connection with Kulturhuset Kåken's Plant Change Day, we invite you to a public discussion where researchers from the University of Gothenburg share their research on sustainable food production in small-scale farming. What role do urban and local farming initiatives play? And how can research support farmers in the transition to more sustainable systems?

With soil, seeds and farming practices as a starting point, we discuss biodiversity, the life of the earth and how small-scale farming systems can contribute to more sustainable ways of producing food.

The discussion connects science and everyday life and provides new perspectives on how the food of the future can start in small ways – in gardens, allotments and communal farms.

Participants

To be presented shortly.

Moderator

Annelie Sjölander Lindqvist, Senior Lecturer, Department of Global Studies, University of Gothenburg.
