Thanks for registering for "Food Sovereignty Workshop: Community-Centered Approaches for Food Systems Transformation"
The workshop will take place over the course of two days and will be an opportunity for participants to deepen their understanding, form partnerships, and begin taking action right away. The conversations from day 1 will continue on day 2, which is geared towards turning all of this information and discussion into new activities by facilitating new collaborations. Some outcomes we might achieve by 3:00 on Friday include: new course development, teams formed around aspects of current programs, new grant/funded project proposal teams formed, institutional pathways for more equitable research, and whatever the assets and creativity each person brings to the table can achieve. To continue the discussion after the workshop, we are partnering with Columbus’ Growing and Growth Collective on a film series focused on food sovereignty projects locally and around the world.
Thursday's program will include an example of a current food sovereignty project, examine historic practices, and take insights from different locations and world regions. It will take place at the Main Library, 11th Floor.
Friday's program will focus on building projects that focus on communities and their unique assets. We can only allow 40 people to participate in day two. We encourage anyone who signs up for day two, to also take part in day one. These conversations will take place at the STEAM Factory.
