Food Education and Empowered Development (FEED)

The joint working group on SDG#2 Zero Hunger composed of the Ateneo de Manila University, Xavier University-Ateneo de Cagayan, Ateneo de Davao University, and Sustainable Development Solutions Network (SDSN) Philippines, invites the Ateneo community to its ongoing Webinar Series on Sustainable Food Systems and the Future in the context of the SDG 2030 with focus on Zero Hunger SDG#2.

In 2021, various virtual public conferences were organized, including the first-ever independent dialogue for the UN Food Systems Summit, to increase public awareness  on the challenges brought about by food insecurity  and under-nutrition and to explore pathways  to contribute to sustainable ways forward in a variety of issues.

In this light, for 2022, the community is invited to an online webinar on Tuesday, 5 July 2022 at 3:00 – 5:00 pm via Zoom on the theme of feeding programs entitled, Food Education and Empowered Development (F.E.E.D.).
