This segment of our one-episode podcast is hosted by Ian and Janae. This segment features Ethan Lui, a fourth-year International Relations student and a volunteer at the AMS Food Bank. Tune in as Ethan shares his insights on campus food insecurity based on his experience as a volunteer for the Food Bank and as a researcher for similar initiatives. "Food insecurity is always an income problem. It’s not a scarcity of food problem," says Ethan.

This segment's cover was retrieved from the AMS Food Bank page, showing one of the volunteers holding food offerings available to student clients.
