The aim of the event was to update the audience on the progress/evaluation of the Glasgow City Food Plan over the last 2 years, to hear about national food related developments and changing context, to learn from some UK and international speakers about their work, and to have discussions on the best way forward for a ‘refreshed’ Food Plan for the next 8 years.
