Ensuring Equity in the Food System: Potential of Activist-Academic Collaborations
INFAS is a network of educators and researchers who are dedicated to food system sustainability and committed to supporting, learning from and partnering with communities. We recognize that our food system is profoundly inequitable and institutions of higher education hold power and privilege that can be used for good or harm. Equity in opportunity, food access and health outcomes is a non-negotiable foundational principle of a sustainable food system and a core value and commitment for us. In this workshop, we hope to share and engage participants in building a vision of a just food system that is supported by education and research
