Attending the Winter School on Food Systems Law and Policy at the University of Antwerp was a transformative experience. The course provided a deep dive into critical legal frameworks shaping food systems, with insights from top legal experts. I gained invaluable knowledge and met passionate individuals from diverse backgrounds. This experience only fueled my commitment to advocating for more equitable and sustainable food systems and I look forward to applying what I've learned in future work.

The Food Systems Law and Policy program opened my eyes to a lot of topics and areas I never knew would have consequential impact on global food security. The blend of academics and industry expert as facilitators of the course made the course really interesting and engaging. I would encourage anyone who wants to know more about food systems to take this course.
