What History Thinks About Singapore’s Food Waste? [Y-Y]


What History Thinks About Singapore’s Food Waste? [Y-Y]
By Youth Corps Singapore

ABOUT
  • Let us turn food waste into an opportunity to be inspired! Youth Corps Singapore Sustainability Cluster is bringing together a 3-parts 5-months series on Singapore’s food waste, but first! Let’s turn back the clock to look at how Singapore has approached food waste since the 1940s, which has changed dramatically across history. In this webinar we will look at the contributing factors that led to our understanding of food waste then, to understand how Singapore got to where we are today.

     

    Sign-up for this event now for a night of eye-opening discussions and come out better equipped to talk about food waste issues! 



    Professor Marvin Montefrio teaches Environmental Studies in Social Sciences at Yale-NUS and has been an environmental scholar, professional and advocate for more than 20 years. As an interdisciplinary scholar, Asst Prof Montefrio employs diverse methodological approaches (ethnographic, quantitative surveys, and historical) and draws from multiple theories from political ecology, STS, environmental and rural sociology, environmental anthropology, human geography, ecological economics, environmental science, and more recently cultural studies.

     

    This is an event opportunity that aims to raise social awareness for your learning and development. No community service is involved; hence service hours will not be awarded.

     

    This opportunity is brought to you by the Youth Corps Singapore Sustainability Cluster.
