What Does Food Sovereignty Mean in the UK?

In this session we will consider, together with the audience, what food sovereignty means in a UK context and what the agroecology movement can do towards increasing food sovereignty. Is it realistic or relevant for ordinary people to have agency over where their food comes from? What kinds of control do different people in the UK actually want over their food? Is it the remit of our movement to increase food sovereignty where the choices people want to make may not be about agroecologically produced food? What interventions help groups to identify and act on their food choices? Speakers will give examples of practice which have increased agency or given voice to people.
