Description

Institutional food systems in schools, hospitals, and universities often reflect the negative aspects of the industrialized food system. These long supply chains frequently face environmental and social challenges, alongside rising market concentration in production and distribution. This book by Academic Press explores how institutions can change this pattern. By leveraging their significant purchasing power, institutions can drive real systems change. The text examines how non-profit organizations, government agencies, university research institutes, and activists work together with institutions. Through these partnerships, they experiment with ethical and sustainable food models that move away from traditional industrialized methods toward more responsible procurement practices.

Key Features

The book addresses environmental and social problems found in long, industrialized food supply chains.

Learn about the partnership between non-profit organizations, government agencies, and activists to create sustainable food models.
