Food Literacy for All
Food Literacy for All is a community-academic partnership course at the University of Michigan supported by the Sustainable Food Systems Initiative, Program in the Environment, School for Environment & Sustainability, and our Michigan-based community partners.
From January to April 2026, Food Literacy for All features dynamic guest speakers each Tuesday evening (6:30-7:50 PM) to address the challenges and opportunities of diverse food systems. This year, we will hear talks on changemaker chefs, seed rematriation, student food movements, soil science and politics, city urban agriculture directors, labor practices in the meatpacking industry, and much more. The course is primarily virtual and livestreamed as Zoom Webinars.
