“Development of a Food Security Program at the University of Northern British Columbia”

There is widespread interest in local food production and sustainable agriculture in northern B.C. The extent to which young people are interested in these issues as a career is uncertain, however. Considerations in the development of a ‘Sustainable Food Systems’ undergraduate program, including options for regional delivery, will be discussed. Community input is invited.
