Staff from Urban Tilth participate in an Urban Agroecology course at UC Berkeley, 2015.
The Haas Institute for a Fair and Inclusive Society is excited to announce the release of its food policy report on Thursday, April 28 at UC Berkeley. The report outlines strategies that can facilitate more deeply engaged partnerships between UC Berkeley, the planned Berkeley Global Campus and surrounding Richmond community to realize transformational food system change.

This report and the event focus on questions such as: How can UC Berkeley advance food equity on- and off-campus? Is there a possibility for creating a UC Berkeley food policy council that would strengthen and improve food-related work on-campus and in local communities? And how can we, as students, staff, faculty, and community members, develop strategies around the needs of those communities most marginalized by the current food system?

Please join us for an open house at UC Berkeley to discuss the report release and next steps for shared work toward food justice in Richmond.

The event is open to the public. Light refreshments will be served. Please RSVP for the event at http://hifisfoodjustice.app.rsvpify.com/.
