Regarding The 11th Circumpolar Agriculture Conference to be arranged in Tórshavn, Faroe Islands, September 5th to 7th 2023 – #CAC2023:
The 11th Circumpolar Agriculture Conference (#CAC2023) will be held under this headline: “Farming in the High North – Contributions to a sustainable local Bioeconomy and secure Food Systems.”
The reason for this rather wide theme for the 11th Circumpolar Agricultural Conference (CAC2023), but yet of so topical interest, has its foundation in e.g. the Nordic perspectives on the future, as described in the Vision 2030 Programme [a most sustainable and integrated region; i.e. green, competitive and socially sustainable], as well in the UN Sustainable Development Goals (SDG). No other sector, like Agriculture in its broadest sense, might interact with as many of these prioritised topics. The present geopolitical turmoil and the aftermaths of the pandemic have only underlined calls regarding the vulnerability of our modern supply chains, and on the need for e.g. rethinking the schemes for local food production. Prosperity for the citizens of the Arctic is a cornerstone for making the region attractive to the younger generations and thus being vibrant communities. The predicted effects of climate change will probably over time reveal huge areas of both land and sea in the Arctic, where the citizens of the region might have their option to contribute to the FAO call on increased future global food production.
