Delivering demands

By Christine Haigh, 18 September 2012

What do you want to see change to deliver a better food system? That’s what European citizens were asked recently – and the results have been impressive.

With the issues raised including fair prices for farmers, action to tackle food speculation and an end to food waste, and key decisions due to be taken by European decision-makers in the coming weeks, we wanted to make sure these demands didn’t go unheard.

We joined up with the organisers of the Good Food March, a pan-European initiative calling for a better European food system, to deliver some of the hundreds of images submitted by people across Europe onto the walls of the European parliament and the surrounding buildings. The results certainly turned a few heads in the city centre this evening, and will hopefully provide a talking point for those in the Brussels bubble as the Good Food March arrives tomorrow.
