Provocations: What Will We Eat in the Future? – RMIT Talks and Ideas Series

Organisation: RMIT University

Location: RMIT Storey Hall

Date: April 1, 2026

As climate change, population growth, and ecological collapse reshape how we produce and consume food, we need to think outside the (lunch) box to find solutions.

Join Bruce Pascoe and our panel of food systems, waste, packaging experts and inventive cooks explore what we'll be eating in the future, and how food security, food sovereignty, nutrition and wellbeing are interconnected and dependent.

How can we eliminate food waste, recycle and extend food life, and secure food systems in the face of the climate emergency, a plastics dependence, and a tumultuous water-energy-food nexus? What does the future of food taste and smell like and who gets to decide what's put on our plates?

Learn what's simmering in food science, what's sizzling in food and packaging innovation, and rethink the main course on dinner plates of the future.

This event is part of Provocations - RMIT University's Talks and Ideas series.
