The first workshop for our VicHealth Food Supply Scenarios project is being held on 23rd November.
The overarching aim of the Workshop is to generate material that informs the development of the exploratory scenarios. This workshop is NOT intended to arrive at a set of scenarios or defined scenario outlines. It WILL generate information and thinking that will inform an iterative scenario development process by the project team
The key question for the workshop is:
“What dynamics, or combinations of dynamics, could affect secure and sustainable provision of food for the Victorian community?"
