Dimensions of Understanding Food Security and Implications for Health
FY 2012-13
Summary
Our lives depend on food. It nourishes us and sustains our health. Food is a powerful economic force in the world and a potent cultural symbol of community and family well-being.
The proposed Cafe is designed to offer members of the local community the best possible access to food and health knowledge and expertise to drive understanding of, innovation towards, and action on the world's food issues and implications for health.
Both Cafe's will cover the principles and practice of food security, albeit taking an overview of the subject or analyzing it with a broad perspective over its many component disciplines.
