Food Systems Approach to Vegan Advocacy

Thrive Philanthropy is partnering with Dr. Rachel Mason, PhD to offer a special Food Systems Approach to Vegan Advocacy webinar. Factory farming is an end-to-end system, driven by the profit motive and embedded in a culture that supports and legitimizes it. Thinking about the “big picture” like this can be daunting, but it also helps to illuminate the many ways in which we can intervene in the system, and it invites us to consider how we might collaborate, coordinate, and strategize for maximum effect. In this special webinar, Dr. Rachel Mason will describe a framework for understanding factory farming and industrial food animal production as the “food system” it really is, and outline steps towards a world in which advocates strategically deploy multiple interventions to displace industrial animal agriculture, replacing it with ethical and sustainable plant-based alternatives. This 1-hour webinar is a must for anyone working in plant-based food systems spaces. This webinar is free and open to the public.
