Food & drink heritage, rural tradition or novelty? Challenges for responsible development.

 

Contributions from a diverse range of academic, practitioner developer, community organisations and new researchers are especially welcomed.

 

Rural space has been traditionally recognised as spaces of food production and rich repositories of food and drink, traditions, heritage and provenance. Upon this foundation both well-known and newer forms of rural leisure and rural tourism offers have been developed. Experiences from gastronomy within food tourism to more technical ventures in micro-brewing, artisan and lifestyle markets exemplify this potential.

·        How can these new forms of rural food and drink developments and experiences contribute towards and equitable and wider rural resilience in contrasting geographical contexts?

·        Can such food and drink based development be mapped and trends understood? Should this be managed?

·        How will these development offer responsible modes of innovation?

·        Is there academic potential in considering craft scale food or drink production and challenges to growth?

·        Can new food and drink innovation be made sustainable e.g. more localised supply chains or trading networks?

·        What consequences may changing rural food and drink-scapes have on accessibility of local foods for all?

 

This session will explore both traditional rural food and drink heritage, current issues and future possibilities for responsible rural development and building of rural resilience through the use of food and drink and will invite a diverse range of speakers to discuss cases studies and academic analysis. Interdisciplinary, holistic and empirical case study based presentations are invited from speakers exited by the questions above linked to food and drink geographies.

 

Abstracts of up to 250 words should be sent to Eifiona Thomas Lane ([log in to unmask]) and Rebecca Jones ([log in to unmask]) by 12 February 2018. Please feel free to get in touch to discuss or if you require further information about the session focus or suitability for your paper. The plan is to have presentations of around 15 minutes with further Q&A allocated during the session.
