Strengthening the Roots: Food & Justice Convergence

February 12-14, 2010
University of California, Santa Cruz

The Strengthening the Roots: Food & Justice Convergence will be held in Santa Cruz, CA on February 12-14, 2010. The convergence is organized by the California Student Sustainability Coalition/West Coast Real Food Challenge and regional partners. This regional gathering of students and allies will strengthen the roots of our movement for just and sustainable food by bringing 200 students and allies together for workshops, panel discussions, and leadership trainings. The convergence will empower high school and college students to actively engage in their local communities and institutions by providing them with leadership skills, successful models and case studies, and a broader network of activists and allies.

This will be the largest regional meeting in California exclusively dedicated to students and young leaders working on sustainable food, fair trade, and food justice! This convergence will be a rallying point that will inspire continued engagement throughout the 2009-2010 school year.

Erin, Holly, Justin and Carla from e3 will all be attending. Please let us know if you are interested in joining the fun!
