EATING AS A MORAL ACT:
ETHICS AND POWER FROM AGRARIANISM TO CONSUMERISM SYMPOSIUM

UNIVERSITY OF NEW HAMPSHIRE
APRIL 25-27, 2004

Join us to explore the provocative connections among eating,
ethics and the ability of citizens and communities to shape
a sustainable food system through their food choices. This
symposium will examine the underlying questions of justice
and morality within the food and farming system through
panel sessions and featured lectures.

The symposium will include:
Interdisciplinary panel session that will span topics
ranging from "Corporate Imperialism: Eclipsing the Family
Farm" to "Eating the Future? Educational Implications" and
"The Morality and Reform of Food: Religious and
Philosophical Issues";
featured lectures by Marion Nestle, Sidney Mintz, Brother
David Andrews, Dana & Laura Jackson, and Sandy Oliver;
(http://www.sustainableunh.unh.edu/fas/sidore_lecture.html)
informal networking opportunities; and meals featuring
locally and organically produced foods.

The symposium registration fee of $100 will include all
symposium sessions and some meals.
