Water for food security in a changing climate

How can we boost Sweden’s food security despite increasing climate risks? On 21 March, SIANI will organise a half-day seminar on this topic, together with SIWI Swedish Water House and SLU Global.

The seminar will take place at Medelhavsmuseet in Stockholm but will also be livestreamed. Join us to learn more about the role of water in agriculture at a time when both food producers and retailers face fast-growing water risks.

How can we reduce water use in food value chains?  Which good examples from other countries could be adapted to the Swedish context?
