2023 Extinction or Regeneration Conference
In this age of hunger and accelerating climate and biodiversity emergencies, radical reform of the global food system is urgently needed.
The Extinction or Regeneration Conference in 2023 provided a platform for experts across the globe to share solutions for how we can transform our food and farming systems for better human, animal and planetary health. We need a whole food system approach to providing sufficient nutritious food for everyone. This must remain within the safe operating space of all nine planetary boundaries whilst protecting wild and domestic animals and restoring soils, oceans, forests and biodiversity.
Watch the 2023 conference highlights:
Extinction or Regeneration was convened to address the urgent need for more sustainable methods of food production that can feed future generations, while protecting humans, animals, and the planet.
Hosted as a hybrid meeting - at the QEII Conference Centre in London, and online, on the 11th and 12th May 2023 – the game-changing international conference included plenary sessions with inspirational speakers, roundtable discussions, networking and facilitated action workshops to catalyse collaboration and change.
