Nora McKeon’s just-released book explains why we find ourselves in this situation and explores what we can do to change it. In her talk she will contrast how actors link up in corporate global food chains and in the local food systems that are considered to be “alternative” but in fact feed most of the world’s population. She will describe how communities around the world are protecting their access to resources and building better ways of food provision and discuss how the Committee on World Food Security - a uniquely inclusive global policy forum since its reform in 2009 - could be supportive of these efforts. The talk will conclude with a call to blow the whistle on predatory capitalism by building effective public policy instruments for accountable governance and extending their authority to the realm of regulating markets and corporations. Respondents will include: * Thomas Forster, New School Food Studies, Post 2015 Food and Agriculture Cluster * Saulo Araujo, Director of the Global Movements Program at WhyHunger * Moderated by Nicholas Freudenberg, Distinguished Professor of Public Health, CUNY School of Public Health & Hunter College, and Faculty Director, NYC Food Policy Center at Hunter College [eventbrite] [Eventbrite]<http://www.eventbrite.com/r/enivtefor001?utm_source=eb_email&utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=inviteformal&utm_term=eblogofooter> [https://cdn.evbstatic.com/s3-s3/static/images/django/util/line.gif] This invitation was sent to [log in to unmask]<mailto:[log in to unmask]> by New York City Food Policy Center at Hunter College<http://www.eventbrite.com/org/6216943089> the organizer.
