IUPUI - Food for Thought - Local Food, Global Impact

Can we have a discussion about how we choose what we eat?
Date: March 06, 2010
Time: 7:30 AM to 2:30 PM
Location: University Place Conference Center and Hotel
850 W. Michigan Street, Indianapolis.

Discussions around how we choose what we eat, local food and global impact will be the focus at an upcoming continuing education conference presented by the IUPUI Alumni Association. Inspired by IUPUI's inaugural Common Theme book, Deep Economy by Bill McKibben, and the 2010 Spirit & Place theme, a distinguished panel of faculty and local experts will explore how and why we consume food – its sources, quality, culture, and markets and the consequences of our consumption on our local and worldwide community. Join thought provoking discussions and be prepared to challenge your current way of thinking while joining others who share a passion for learning and engagement.

Pre-registration is required for this event as seating is limited.
