Co-sponsored by the CUNY Urban Food Policy Institute, this Grand Rounds lecture features Dr. Jess Fanzo, Professor of Climate and the Food for Humanity Initiative Director at Columbia University’s Climate School in New York City.

Dr. Fanzo will provide a global to local overview of how fragile, yet important food systems are to climate change and action. Food systems involve a complex set of activities and actors, and everyone, every day, engages with food systems. While they are contributors and victims of climate change, there are transformative paths we can take to ensure food systems, in all their various forms, are resilient.
