Cultivating Change: Relationships, Policy, and Local Food Systems
August 26th, 2-3:30 ET
Join us for a conversation with Kelli Kelly, a food systems advocate, policy practitioner, & longtime member of the Food Systems Leadership Network. Kelli will explore moments when food systems perspectives were absent from policy decisions, the process of developing practical tools to bridge those gaps, & the lessons she's learned along the way.
Lastly, she'll also reflect on where this work stands today & what it means for communities looking to engage more effectively with local decision-makers.
Whether you're new to policy engagement or already working in collaboration with local leaders, this session will offer practical insights, real-world examples, & space to learn from one another!
