UC Irvine Humanities Center: Food and Nurturance Kick-Off Event
  • This event has passed.

The UCI Humanities Center invites you to explore the concepts of Food and Nurturance

What sustains our bodies and our well being? With whom do we eat and commune? Whose labor is expended in order for us to eat and maintain our health? How are food and acts of care circulated between and among us? What impact do we have on our environment and our communities in order to feed and nurture ourselves?

The UCI Humanities Center will explore these questions through our annual theme of “Food and Nurturance” for the 2025-2026 academic year.

  • Yong Chen, UC Irvine
