Webinar - Building food council networks that support health, local economies and equity
This webinar shares how Kansas, Michigan, and North Carolina have each
developed robust local food (policy) council networks. These networks connect councils and local level coalitions to foster more equitable food systems that advance health and economic opportunity locally, regionally, and statewide.
Presenters discuss how they have
leveraged partnerships to support more democratic action on local food, farming, and health issues and inform state policy. They also discuss responses to COVID-19 in their work, the importance of using an equity lens, lessons learned, and where their work is going next.
