Description
COVID-19 has been especially challenging for frontline food and farm workers who are expected to maintain global food systems with limited protections or compensation. The pandemic exacerbated working conditions for individuals who were already vulnerable to systemic inequality and exploitation. The focus of the Faith and Food Dialogue for Action Track 4 will engage the question of how our food systems need to change in order to be more just, equitable, and humane for the workers who keep food on the world’s table.
Speakers To Be Announced Soon
