Food for thought - a focus on WSM food security

Food for thought is a chance to delve into the big topic of WSM food security. You will find out what food security means for our region and communities and have a chance to help us find out what we are already doing in this space and where gaps and needs exist.

We'll use your insights to help us better prepare for things that could disrupt the growing, processing, transport, supply and availability of food - one of the most fundamental requirements for us all.

Come prepared to listen, learn and share your valuable thoughts on this important topic.
