Preliminary CFSG Meeting
We will be hosting our preliminary CFSG meeting on November 23, 2011 from 12:00 – 2:00 in the GSA Lounge (6th floor UniCentre Building). Come on out and become involved in the effort to ensure an action-oriented network to support food work on campus, represent and problem-solve issues relating to food, and support a transition toward more local and sustainable food procurement!
This strategy group is just one of the steps towards creating food secure communities together, please do not hesitate to contact us with any ideas or input you have! You can reach us at carletonlist@studentfood.ca, @CarletonCFSG, 613-520-2600 ext. 2265 or come and visit us at 426i UniCentre.
We look forward to seeing you on November 23rd!
In solidarity,

National Student Food Charter Sessions at Carleton
We’re connecting with the national food movement and building a National Student Food Charter! Come to a discussion about food and food systems to make your voice heard.
Friday, March 9th at 12:30pm in the GSA boardroom
Friday, March 23rd at 12:30pm in the GSA boardroom
Wednesday March 14th at 12:30pm in Loeb A820
Wednesday March 28th at 12:30pm in the GSA boardroom
The results of these discussions are going to be submitted and compiled by a team of students and food experts who will draft the content from these discussions into a National Student Food Charter. The aim of the Charter is to mobilize and unify a national student food movement, contribute to a vision for a better future, and provide Canadian students with the means to initiate conversations and actions for food reform on their campuses.
