Description
Community food security provides a rich diversity of self-organized food systems to improve, maintain and enhance health, well-being, resilience and ecological sustainability, originated and nurtured by Indigenous and other marginalized communities. By examining Canadian and international case studies as well as empirical research on Indigenous voices, knowledges and perspectives on their own food systems, this course critically engages students with the concepts, approaches, practices and challenges of Indigenous food production, consumption and distribution and their role in achieving community food security.
