Review for Food First/Institute for Food and Development Policy, Pasadena, CA, USA
I had a wonderful experience collaborating with the Food First community of hard-working and compassionate people to provide each other with support and intellectual stimulation to carry out research and to craft strategies to tackle the problems of food and social injustice. Through research and discussions, I learned immeasurably about the challenges we face in democratizing the food system and ending hunger and poverty. Knowledgeable of Food First’s domestic and international work, I am inspired and hopeful for the future.
