Summary
Food–accessing it, cooking it, gathering around it–is a powerful tool for inciting change on both an individual and community level. It’s a lens for understanding environmental, social, and political issues, near and far. How do we leverage the power of food? What does it mean to prioritize Food Studies in a large university setting?
UCLA is doing that through its educational programs, like the Food Studies Minor and the Rothman Family Institute for Food Studies, and the plethora of on-campus resources, the Teaching Kitchen, Bruin Dining, Community Programs Office, and beyond. Join Dr. Amy Rowat, Chef Julia Rhoton, and Laila Adarkar, and guest host, Kayleigh Ruller, on this exploration.
