Can fixing dinner fix the planet? ‚ÄĒ Jessica Fanzo


Listen Later

A complex web of factors¬†affects our ability¬†not only¬†to meet nutritional needs,¬†but also our efforts to¬†sustain biodiversity and protect the environment. As the world's agricultural, environmental, and nutritional needs intersect‚ÄĒand often collide‚ÄĒhow can nations, international organizations¬†and consumers¬†work together to reverse the damage by changing how we make, distribute, and¬†buy food?¬†And do we have the right to eat wrongly?

Jessica Fanzo is the Bloomberg Distinguished Professor of Global Food & Agricultural Policy and Ethics at Johns Hopkins University. She has previously worked as an advisor for various organizations and governments including the Global Alliance for Improved Nutrition (GAIN), the International Food Policy Research Institute (IFPRI), the Scaling Up Nutrition movement (SUN), the UN Standing Committee on Nutrition (UNSCN), and the World Health Organization (WHO). Her latest book is Can Fixing Dinner Fix the Planet?
