UGA\u2019s Sustainable Food Systems Initiative and Spelman College\u2019s Food Studies Program have been awarded a USDA Higher Education Challenge (HEC) Grant to increase diversity and promote an inclusive curriculum for students pursuing food and agricultural science (FAS) degrees by building an equitable and resilient partnership between our two programs. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

We anticipate that this program will serve as a model for strengthening cross-institutional partnerships aimed at expanding racially inclusive curriculum and mentoring and increasing the representation of BIPOC undergraduate and graduate students in FAS programs. By collaboratively addressing barriers to diversity in FAS, we will help build a diverse and representative pool of future FAS educators, thought leaders, and practitioners.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
