Perspectives on Diversity & Inclusion Series | Serving the College Student: Introduction to Food Justice & Food Insecurity

Presented by Cooperative Extension

Speaker: Aileen Cerrillos

Intro to Food Justice and Food Insecurity is an interactive presentation on what food insecurity looks like on college campuses and how a larger movement of Food Justice can be utilized to frame solutions that address short and long term challenges for those facing food insecurity. Additionally, we will share how the UA Campus Pantry itself has fought food insecurity since it opened in 2012.

There will be a collection bin for food donations, please bring non-perishable items to help us fundraise for the holiday season. Light lunch will be provided.
