Strengthening the Roots: Food, Justice and Fair Trade

This year's Presidents Day weekend, February 15-18, the California Student Sustainability Coalition's (CSSC) Foods Initiative is joining forces with United Students for Fair Trade (USFT) to create a super-convergence uniting the food systems and social justice worlds. The event will be hosted by the Community Agro-ecology Network (CAN) at UC Santa Cruz. This is your opportunity to get involved in engaging dialogue, eye-opening workshops and practical activism trainings working towards a more sustainable and just world ...not to mention hang out with like-minded awesome activists from all over the West Coast!

The cost is $25/person if you register before February 8th, and $35/person afterwards. Click on www.spaceshare.com/fairtrade to get free accommodation at UC Santa Cruz. Want to carpool from UC Berkeley, or can offer to drive? Contact maren.poitras@gmail.com.
