New publication: Adapting a social-ecological resilience framework for food systems

Two of our FSTI affiliates - Jennifer Hodbod and Hallie Eakin - have published a new paper in the Journal of Environmental Studies and Sciences. 'Adapting a social-ecological resilience framework for food systems'  addresses the purpose of applying social-ecological resilience thinking to food systems before going on to distinguish between the resilience of food systems and broader conceptualizations of resilience in social-ecological systems.

Reflecting the breadth of food system issues researched and taught at ASU, the School of Sustainability now offers a 15-credit interdisciplinary Certificate in Food System Sustainability - a comprehensive, sustainability-oriented introduction to food systems for undergraduate students.

Through a collaboration between the ASU Wrigley Institute and Institute for Humanities Research, the Wrigley Lecture Series welcomed physicist, activist and author Vandana Shiva, who spoke about sustainable food challenges in the 21st century.
