Information Session: England/Scotland: Agricultural and Environmental Communications

From Farms to Front Pages: Ag & Environmental Comms in the UK. Ever wonder how the media shapes what we think about food, farming, and the environment? This program takes you across the UK — from Edinburgh to London — to explore how British media covers major ag and environmental issues, and how that compares to what we see in the U.S.

You’ll dive into real-world topics like:

• Livestock health & dairy industry challenges
• Organic and local food movements
• Outbreaks like foot-and-mouth disease

Along the way, you’ll meet with:

• British ag & environmental communicators
• Farmers and industry leaders
• Ag universities

And yes — there’s time to explore! You’ll visit iconic spots like:

• Edinburgh Castle & St. Andrews
• Stonehenge
• Kensington Palace & the Tower of London

This isn’t just a study abroad — it’s a deep dive into how stories are told, who tells them, and why it matters. Come ready to ask big questions, meet cool people, and see the UK through a whole new lens.
