GPSA Research Symposium 2021. Please join the SusAg community for the Virtual 2021 GPSA Research Symposium and poster competition. The Research Symposium will be held on 21 April (Wednesday) starting at 5:00pm. We are excited to host Andy Fisher as our keynote. Andy Fisher is the co-founder of the Community Food Security Coalition (CFSC), a first of its kind national alliance of hundreds of groups working on urban food access and local food. He authored the book, Big Hunger: The Unholy Alliance Between Corporate America and Anti-Hunger Groups (https://www.bighunger.org) in which he argues that many key anti-hunger advocates are missing an essential element of the problem: economic inequality driven by low wages. His research finds that efforts to end hunger, reduce obesity, and reform farm subsidies are compromised by corporate interests. Event details below:
