Living Your Passion: Reflections & Insights from a Food Systems Change Agent

ABOUT THE SERIES TOPIC With five years left to achieve the United Nations’ 2030 Sustainable Development Goals, food systems have emerged as a guiding framework to achieve progress on all 17 goals. Food systems are transdisciplinary, cross-sectoral, and fundamental. Exploring solutions in this space therefore often works across multiple goals and toward the aim of “peace and prosperity for people and the planet”. In this seminar, we’ll explore a cross-section of food systems and these global goals, across economic, social, and ecological agendas, and hear from leaders and practitioners contributing to these spaces. ************** SEMINAR SCHEDULE Check out our next seminar sessions and speakers at: https://foodsystems.uw.edu/seminar
