Supermarkets and the Right to Food in the UK

Virtual Event, 15/10/2024 - 15/10/2024

The Global Food and Environment Institute at the University of Leeds invites you to join our World Food Day webinar: 'Supermarkets and the Right to Food in the UK'. During this talk, Dr Clare James, Lecturer in Law, School of Law, University of Leeds, will provide an overview of her research in this area. This webinar will discuss the multiple ways supermarkets interact with the right to food. It then engages with the normative content of the right to food to propose government interventions to limit possible negative impacts of supermarkets on the realisation of the right to food. There will be 10 minutes for questions at the end of the talk.
