Tara is the Acting Director of
Table, which sets out the evidence, assumptions, and values underpinning different viewpoints on food systems controversies.
Tara’s work centres on the interactions among food, climate, health and broader sustainability issues; she has a particular interest in livestock as a sector where many of these converge. She is also interested in how knowledge is communicated to and interpreted by policy makers, civil society organisations and industry, and in the values that these different stakeholders bring to food problems and possible solutions.
