Advocacy Episodes

As we bid farewell to 2022, Tracy is thrilled to welcome Dani Nierenberg, co-founder and president of Food Tank, an organization that is a beacon for change, focusing on food systems globally and locally. In our episode, we dive into transformative food system changes post-COVID, the strain on food banks, and the recent Food Donation Improvement Act breakthrough with bipartisan support. From unraveling the impact of the White House conference on food, nutrition, and hunger to exploring pressing agricultural issues and the hope found in youth-led climate advocacy, Dani illuminates the path forward. Join us as we navigate sustainable solutions for event planners, the implications of the Ukraine crisis on global food security, and the cultural intertwining of food. Dani's insights will inspire you to see the new year with optimism and proactive energy for food justice and environmental progress in 2023.
