- Hyperlocality as part of “trendy sustainability”?
- Why hyperlocal in Covid-times?
- What and where do we talk about a Covid-19 related disruption (supply chains? panic buying? What about the retailers?)
- What about “food security”?
- Why are people more “sustainable” in Covid-/Post-Covid-times? Are they?
- What are “hyperlocal communication strategies”?
- How much is/can this be translated into an online world? (adaption strategies?)
- What skills are needed in local food hubs?
- Is there something like “public pedagogy” or: What skills can be learned in local food systems/community projects etc.?
- What are strategies to engage with local councils/governments?
- What about “investment” strategies (what kind of investment are we talking about)?
- What about community, cohesion and inclusion – is COVID-19 bringing “values” back?
- What about social inclusion and gender issues when we talk about sustainability, food & food supply?
- How can academic works be translated into the hyperlocal communities?
The workshop will be recorded and available to delegates.
