Students today really want to learn about the future of food, but sadly, and amazingly, most universities have little or nothing to offer that is of value. Enter Samantha Derrick, who decided to do more than complain about it and just make it happen, not only in her own university but everywhere! Join us to be inspired by Samantha and the Plant Futures Initiative.
Samantha Derrick is the Founder and Executive Director of Plant Futures Initiative, a 501c3 academic course and global student movement with a mission to accelerate the transition to a plant-centric food system. Samantha received her Master’s of Public Health from UC Berkeley and prior to graduate school, worked for a variety of environmental organizations in the US, Mexico, and India.
