This event has been moved from 30 June to 7 September 2021.

This meeting of the Food Governance-Community of Practice Meeting (FG-CoP) will look at the role of small-scale traditional fisheries as an important source of livelihoods and nutrition, particularly for coastal communities.

Vice-Chancellor and Rector of the University of the Western Cape, Professor Tyrone Pretorius, invites you to a conversation with Professor Ian Baucom, the Buckner W Clay Dean of the College and Graduate School of Arts & Science, University of Virginia, US. The event is presented in association with the Centre for Humanities Research (DSI-NRF Flagship) and the DSI-NRF Centre of Excellence in Food Insecurity, and is hosted by the International Relations Office, UWC.

This workshop will explore challenges and needs in the food system and identify opportunities for interventions to improve resilience and nutrition.
