FoodSIVI Webinar on the Costs of the Food System
The true costs of the impacts of the current food system as well as the need for an economic conversation about food system transformation were highlighted in the recent Food System Impact Valuation (FoodSIVI) webinar. The event, which took place on 21 September 2020, featured leading experts on academic, civil, and business fronts.
