About the event
Achieving a better work-life balance, having headspace for creativity and innovation, and time to engage in peer-peer learning have been highlighted as key aspirations of dairy farmers – but how do we create dairy systems that give farmers “more time on their hands” to achieve this?
In this innovation workshop we will bring dairy farmers together to explore and design new ways of ‘creating more time’ for dairy farmers to support a transition towards fairer and more ethical dairy systems that are fair for people animals and planet.

The Food Ethics Council is a think-tank and charity that provides independent advice on the ethics of food and farming. Our mission is to facilitate a shift towards fair food systems that respect people, animals and the planet. The Dairy Project is run by the Food Ethics Council and is about working with dairy farmers and other stakeholders across the dairy sector, to identify the barriers and opportunities for enabling fairer and more ethical dairy systems – and helping to overcome them.
