Sustainable Food Systems
Discover the Food System
Are you passionate about creating a healthier, more sustainable food system? It all starts with getting to know the food system, its issues, and working to find solutions.
Understanding the Food System
The food system significantly affects the environment, public health, and social equity. As a conscientious consumer, you might struggle with conflicting information about sustainable food choices. Our programs will help you navigate these complexities, providing the knowledge and tools to make informed decisions.
Addressing Key Issues
Traditional farming practices relying on monocultures and chemicals, harmful seafood industry practices, and inequitable access to nutritious food are major systemic issues. Our curriculum focuses on regenerative agriculture, which enhances biodiversity and reduces greenhouse gas emissions, and on private sector innovations that drive sustainable food procurement, processing, and waste management.
Engaging in Systemic Solutions
At Unity Environmental University, we emphasize systemic solutions that transform the entire food system. Our programs in sustainable agriculture, food equity, and food science and technology are designed to empower you to contribute to meaningful change. By engaging with these solutions, you can help build a more sustainable and equitable food system.
