Urban Food Justice · 3 credits · Spring 2027
About this course
Examination of the ways that rapid urbanization in the world today produces unequal food systems, impacting the ways we eat, access, grow, ship, and sell food. The course covers the unequal environmental and health consequences of our industrial food system, designed to feed large urban populations. Students will learn about the social, cultural, and environmental effects of the ways we feed ourselves today, how urban food systems impact public health, and how food creates and divides communities. Drawing on social movements for food justice, we explore what an urban food system that protects community health and the environment might look like and how it can be achieved.
