FOOD 0312A: Food Policy
<strong>Food Policy</strong><br />
Food policy is about how decisions are made in the food system, affecting who eats what, who grows food and how. In this course, we will investigate important current topics in food policy at different scales (local to international). Using a range of readings and background sources on food policy, students will learn about contentious issues affected by policy (e.g., debt relief for Black farmers, land reparations, federal food assistance to low-income people, adoption of climate-resilient farming practices).
