Bee Marks Communication Symposium - Toward Sustainable Diets: Communicating the Evidence, Addressing the Challenges

Tuesday, July 24 | 9:00 am - 10:30 am | Nicollet A

Moderator: Roberta Duyff, MS, RDN, FADA, CFCS, Duyff Associates

Speaker: Mark Richards, KRC Research

Addressing complex often confusing issues of food, food systems and sustainability are challenging, even for food and nutrition experts. As a reality-based context for communicating evidence about sustainability, this session will explore public perceptions, along with barriers and misinformation that impact consumer decisions in their attempts to eat sustainably and support sustainable food systems.

The session will provide ways that nutrition educators can translate the science of food sustainability into balanced, actionable and compelling initiatives that promote sustainable food decisions among the public.

Session sponsored by the SNEB Foundation.
