​The Ïã¸ÛÁùºÏÂÛ̳ Food Justice Project​​

The Ïã¸ÛÁùºÏÂÛ̳ Food Justice Project was developed by students in the International Nongovernmental Organizations Studies (INGOS) Program​, through their coursework in INGOS Social Entrepreneurship. In this course, each spring, students tackle food justice issues in the city of Providence.

Student Project Specifics

Faculty-mentored past projects have included a food desert study of South Providence and shorter reports on resources for food-insecure residents of Providence. Recently, students designed​ a much-needed resource sheet for Providence residents that compiles all of the food-related resources in the city, including food banks, government assistance programs, elderly services, community gardens, farmers markets, and food cooperatives.
