Seeking to broaden understanding on cultural perspectives of the food we eat, and extending dialogue rather than offering finite solutions, panelists will discuss the following topics and questions:
- What kinds of individual experiences have triggered the panelists’ interest in the study of food?
- Do the panelists’ local, national or global environments affect their personal or professional practices and how?
- How far away have we as humans moved from the basic, dictionary definition of food? Is food just about providing growth and energy, or is it something more?
