Guest Host: APA Food Systems Division + Public Schools and Communities Division.

Join our virtual cafeteria with the APA Public Schools and Communities Division and APA Food Systems Division to learn more about the intersections between school planning and food systems planning through a panel of school food planning practitioners. Panelists will reflect on their current work, how they arrived at their focus area in this field, challenges ahead, and example projects. They will also reflect on the how and why planners might engage at the intersection of schools and food. This session will also highlight how APA Divisions’ cross-collaboration can open new avenues of opportunity and learning to reach planners’ professional goals. Participants will gain insight into the various roles planners take on at the intersection of food systems and public schools, how school food planning supports jurisdictional priorities, and how planners can create opportunities for thriving public schools and food systems.
