Beyond Hunger: Moving Toward Food Democracy

Frances Moore Lappe’ was a pioneer of sustainable food systems, long before current luminaries such as Michael Pollan and Mark Bittman started writing about food. She published the bestseller Diet for a Small Planet in 1971, the first book to point out the destructive impacts of meat production. She has written numerous articles and other books; the latest book is World Hunger: 10 Myths. She will be speaking about the intersections of food democracy, hunger and food sovereignty.
