Center Fellow, Dr. Nick Copeland on Cooperative Extension and the Coming Transition

Wednesday, January 27, 2021 at 1 pm EST

Covid 19 has exacerbated structural inequalities and shone a spotlight on vulnerabilities endemic in food, economic, and community systems, compounding growing concerns about environmental sustainability and racial justice. In this talk, Dr. Copeland, a cultural anthropologist, will make the case for expanding on cooperative extension programs that are already responding to these interconnected crises to build more just and sustainable systems into the future.

This talk is a part of our new Center Fellows Speaker Series which will feature a presentation from or facilitated discussion led by a Center fellow each month.
