23-25 November 2017. Brussels. Meise Botanical Gardens. Stakeholder meeting of the BigPicNic consortium.
How do we ensure our growing population has access to sufficient safe and nutritious food? Will we have fertile enough land to grow food in the future? Is it possible to adapt food production to climate change?
The BigPicnic team involves nineteen Partner organisations, including botanic gardens, universities, a science shop, an institute for art, science and technology, and an international NGO. Co-ordinated by Botanic Gardens Conservation International (BGCI), BigPicnic Partners span twelve countries across Europe and one in Uganda. These Partners use a range of travelling exhibitions, activities, science cafés and participatory events, co-created with local people, to generate dialogue and build greater understanding of food security issues.

Tooro Botanical Gardens (TBG) is a community owned organisation founded in 2001 as a centre of excellence in growing and maintaining living plant collections from the Albertine Rift, for conservation, scientific research, education, horticultural and aesthetic purposes.
BigPicnic draws upon the findings and practises of several EU funded projects, including INQUIRE,
PLACES, and VOICES and aims to contribute to others like RRI Tools.
From the success of these projects BigPicnic employs tried and tested techniques such as Inquiry Based Science Education (IBSE), as well as making use of established networks between the public, scientists and policy-makers, and following best practice in compiling and analysing citizens’ views to advise on future policies and research.
