In light of geopolitical instability and the impact of global warming on food production, how might Gothenburg support the strengthening of its local food ecosystems?

Overview

BRIEF APPROACH
Design a workshop bringing together producers, distributors, processors and potential customers to identify core values, drivers, and challenges shaping the development of Gothenburg’s local food ecosystem. My role was to consult on workshop design, production and documentation, with a focus on providing a hybrid experience for online and in-person participants, and producing a booklet capturing the consolidated set of recommended strategies .

The workshop was organized in coordination with several local actors: Almost There, Natet, and VART, and VASTMAT.

The workshop structure

The project resulted in the design of a hybrid workshop format allowing for on-site reflection as well as the participation of remote actors. From the workshop a series of insights and concerns were raised according to the respective needs of:
- Producers
- Distributors
- Consumers

The cards were used both for the online and offline participants.

The workshop report

To capture these reflections and support their dissemination, I created a small A5 publication, which has now been used in further grant applications and project developments.
