Tory Conference: Food for Empowerment: How Can Food Security Unlock the Futures of Women and Girls

Executive Room 1, ICC Birmingham, 8 Centenary Sq, Birmingham B1 2EA

Tackling hunger is crucial for development and stability. This panel will explore how prioritising food security in British foreign policy can position Britain as a force for good while focusing on empowering women and girls.
