Dr Tara Garnett, Coordinator and lead researcher at the Food Climate Research Network (FCRN), Environmental Change Institute, University of Oxford. Investigator on the University of Oxford’s Wellcome Trust-funded Livestock, Environment and People programme (LEAP), and Fellow of theOxford Martin School. Research focus: Interactions among food, climate, health and broader sustainability issues - particularly livestock as a sector where many of these converge, how knowledge is communicated to and interpreted by policy makers, civil society and industry, and in the values that these different stakeholders bring to food problems and possible solutions.
