#68 Special Episode: Why Study Food? A Deep Dive Into the Why and the How. UCLA LiveWell
-
- Health & Fitness
3 guests. 2 hosts. And one big question: why study food? Join Dr. Amy Rowat, Chef Julia Rhoton, Laila Adarkar, and guest host, Kayleigh Ruller, on this exploration.
Food--accessing it, cooking it, gathering around it--is a powerful tool for inciting change on both an individual and community level. It’s a lens for understanding environmental, social, and political issues, near and far. How do we leverage the power of food? What does it mean to prioritize Food Studies in a large university setting?
UCLA is exploring these very questions through its educational programs, like the Food Studies Minor and the Rothman Family Institute for Food Studies, and the plethora of on-campus resources, the Teaching Kitchen, Bruin Dining, Community Programs Office, and beyond.
