Anna’s excited to join the 17th annual Sustainable Agriculture and Food Systems Funders forum in Pittsburgh, PA.
As we strive toward a more equitable and sustainable food system, we must recognize and embrace the complexities that such systemic change requires. Challenges abound in the food system, and often communities must contend with many issues at once. If we want to deeply support communities in overcoming the inequities and challenges they face, we must examine points of convergence—such as where race, climate, and economic injustice interact; where hunger, access to land, and policy meet; or where health, extractive economies, and agriculture intersect. As these issues play out across the country—in rural and small towns, urban centers, and everywhere in between—the philanthropic and investment communities must examine their roles and take actions that foster equitable change.
This forum is open to SAFSF members only, please visit SAFSF for more information.
