DESCRIPTION:Join the ÐãÉ«Ö±²¥ Alumni Public Policy Society for an insightful 
 webinar exploring the challenges and opportunities of global food systems 
 transformation.\n\nThe evidence is clear that 'Food is the single stronges
 t lever to optimize human health and environmental sustainability on Earth
 ' (EAT-Lancet\, 2019). The costs of the current food-system to human\, ani
 mal and environmental health outweigh the value produced.\n\nSome examples
  include the skyrocketing price tag associated with diet-related disease a
 nd environmental degradation related to mainstream food-production. Added 
 to that is the fact that approximately 40% of the world's food is wasted e
 ither post-harvest or further along the value-chain. And we currently prod
 uce enough food every human being on this planet!\n\nAre there policy wins
  that can provide inspiration in both North and South?\n\nThis webinar wil
 l dive into some of these issues and engage the audience in a lively discu
 ssion around what can be done.\n\nGUEST SPEAKER:\n	Dr. Gisèle Yasmeen is JW
  McConnell Visiting Professor of Practice for 2025-26 at the Max Bell Scho
 ol of Public Policy. Her research\, policy work and advocacy work has focu
 sed on food-system transformation and she has also held a number of execut
 ive positions in the world of research and higher education. Gisèle had al
 so served on a number of boards and is currently a Director of the Council
  of Canadian Academies and Educational Credential Evaluators. She has work
 ed around the world and has a Master's from ÐãÉ«Ö±²¥ and a Ph.D. from the Un
