It is now open the period for the submission of paper proposals for the sessions already approved of the IV International Congress | Food Sovereignty, which will take place at the Faculty of Economics of the University of Coimbra on 6-8 September 2023 and has in its Organizing Committee the CEIS20 researchers Dulce Freire, Ana Isabel Ribeiro, Pedro C. Carvalho, João Tereso, Carlos Manuel Faísca, Alberto González Remuiñán, Sofia Lacerda and Leonardo Aboim Pires.

This IV International Congress proposes to discuss a fundamental question: how to feed the human population? This is as important an issue today as it was in the past. As access to sufficient food is a vital need, how to achieve this goal has always been a central ambition for humankind. As an individual and collective challenge, the solutions found have varied according to time and place. This congress aims to contribute to identifying and explaining these solutions, promoting interpretations anchored in historical knowledge about the dynamics of production, transaction, transformation, storage and consumption of foodstuffs.

Submission of proposals until February 20th here
