You’re Invited to “Faith in Food: Cultivating Hope in the Age of Industrial Agriculture”

Wed Jan 15, 2025 at 3:30pm EST / 2:30pm CST / 1:30pm MST / 12:30pm PST

The Center for Jewish Food Ethics and the Unitarian Universalist Animal Ministry invite you to an important interfaith panel about how diverse religious and cultural traditions offer unique models for understanding and responding to the problems caused by our industrial food system. “Faith in Food: Cultivating Hope in the Age of Industrial Agriculture” will include perspectives from academics and religious leaders who represent Indigenous, Sikh, and Catholic communities. A major concern of this conversation is highlighting human-animal relationships in the food system, which informs other important relationships with food workers, vulnerable human communities, climate, and the environment. The panelists will begin by discussing their traditions’ foundational values and teachings around food, and move toward possibilities for hope and creativity as communities strive to nourish themselves while protecting animals, people, and the earth.

Panelists: Dr. Tarjunit Butalia, Dr. Mary Doak, and Dr. Randy Woodley

Moderator: Dr. Samira Mehta Sponsor: Better Food Foundation
