For me, this week has been University of Leeds life at its best. I've loved seeing and discussing interdisciplinary food systems research, education, facilities and partnerships with cross-faculty and international colleagues. It's what GlobalFood@Leeds is all about.

In case you didn't know, the University of Leeds research farm is pretty amazing. Just had a fantastic day with our FoSTA Health project visitors, learning about the CIELivestock and regenerative agriculture research that's happening there.

This is one output from a UN Food Systems Summit meeting hosted by GlobalFood@Leeds. Steve's vision for tackling brought together a network of researchers to share perspectives on the risks and benefits of reuse. I am privileged to have been a part of this.
