Eating for Personal and Planetary Health

The Harvard Food Systems Initiative (HFSI) is proud to present: Eating for Personal and Planetary Health with  Frank Hu, MD, PhD, Chair, Department of Nutrition at Harvard T.H. Chan School of Public Health And Stacy Blondin '07, PhD, Behavioral Science Associate at the World Resources Institute The Healthy Eating Plate clearly lays out that at least 75% of our plate should be filled with plants – fruits, vegetables and whole grains – for the sake of our personal and planetary health. Dr. Frank Hu, Chair of the Department of Nutrition at the T. H. Chan School of Public Health, shares what it is about plants that make them sustainable – both the nutrient density that sustains our bodies, but also the environmental practices that are better for the earth. And what about that other 25% of the plate? Plants can sustainably occupy that quadrant too. Dr. Hu is joined by Dr. Stacy Blondin ‘07, Behavioral Science Associate at the World Resources Institute, who studies behavioral science and the keys to changing the way we think about, approach and present food for a more sustainable plate. This virtual event is free and open to the public. <a href="https://harvard.zoom.us/webinar/register/WN_YJWSoSlwS42aTX1WarE0gQ">Registration on Zoom</a> is required to receive the webinar link.

The Harvard Food Systems Initiative (HFSI) is proud to present: “Meet the Food System” with Walter Willett, Professor of Epidemiology and Nutrition, Harvard T. H. Chan School of Public Health Wednesday, September 28 4:30-5:30pm (ET) Smitha Haneef, Managing Director for Harvard University Dining Services is pleased to introduce the Harvard Food Systems Initiative (HFSI) and introduce her HFSI co-chair, Dr. Willett, for a discussion that launches this new year-long focus on the food system with a special focus on nutrition.  What is the “food system” and how does it define personal and societal health? Join Dr. Walter Willett for an introduction to the web of activities – production, processing, distribution, consumption and waste – that define what and how we eat, and how our relationship to the food system and our participation in it informs human health. Focusing on Dr. Willett’s unique expertise on the long-term health consequences of food choices, consider how the broader food system and your engagement in it will improve your health.
