Reindeer husbandry as a resource for the society – present contribution and future possibilities

Seminar at SLU Alnarp. Reindeer husbandry is and has been of great economic and cultural importance for many indigenous peoples, and is one of the most resilient forms of livelihood, in the Barents Euro-Arctic Region. But the discussions about reindeer husbandry most often focus on problems and conflicts.
At this two day seminar, however, research, on-going activities, success stories, and reindeer husbandry as a model for resource management and local food production will be presented and discussed under four main topics: Landscape and biodiversity; Food; Traditional knowledge (including art, handicraft, etc); and Local (rural) socio-economics.
Monday 3 December at 13.00 and Tuesday 4 December at 09.00, SLU Alnarp.

Public procurement in a European perspective – examples from different EU countries

Seminar. Public procurement has been widely discussed the last years and there is a lot of confusion about criteria on environment and animal welfare when purchasing food. Many purchases have been reviewed. There is a great interest to learn from good examples in other EU-countries – the legislation on public procurement is the same in whole EU. Also there is an investigation going on in Sweden on Public procurement and the EU-directive is under process in the European parliament.
KSLA arranged a workshop in April 2012 with representatives from UK and Finland and the European Parliament on public procurement with special focus on quality criteria as environment and animal welfare. This time we want to involve people engaged in public purchasing in regions and communities and people responsible for food in schools, day care and hospitals.
Tuesday 4 December at 09.30.
Broadcasted on the internet.

Aktiviteterna sker hos KSLA på Drottninggatan 95 B i Stockholm om inte annat sägs.
