As the University for food production and technology, animal health and wellbeing, and their contribution to sustainable, living environments for our planet’s inhabitants, we seek to influence debate and relevant policy issues across all of these disciplines, as well as for education in general. 

Businesses in the farming and food sectors need us to build cross-sector alliances and connections – and we need more organisations and communities to understand what we do, how and why we do it, and why it is significant to them.

Members of the University Community, including institutional leaders, lecturers, researchers, professional services colleagues, technicians, students, alumni and industry partners engage and exert influence through various means. For example, some conduct and communicate research, some sit on Parliamentary and other influential committees, some speak at conferences and on expert panels, and some contribute to reports and white papers. 

Keep browsing to see how we engage with politicians, policymakers and opinion leaders of all kinds, ensuring that we are their first port of call on issues important to our sectors and our partner communities.
