Finding Synergy:
Strategies for Coordinating Multiple Food Initiatives to Magnify Impact and Reduce Duplication
Food Policy for Breakfast Seminar Series
Tuesday, June 9, 2015
To what extent and in what ways are the many recent initiatives already collaborating and strengthening each others
work? What are existing mechanisms and processes for coordinating this work? What strategies can we identify to find synergies and magnify the impact of this work?
In this session we will bring together representatives of community organizations, local government, philanthropy and academia to explore the opportunities and challenges associated with the multiple new initiatives
related to food and food policy in New York City.
