Although many of these infections resolve without\ntreatment\, the associated costs are over $400 million a nnually\, and\nserious consequences such as paralysis\, miscarriage\, chro nic bowel\nimpacts\, and death can occur. In response\, public health has evolved a\nset of activities aimed at identifying\, and where possible\npr eemptively intervening\, at points across the food system where the\nmicro organisms that cause foodborne disease could be introduced or\nmultiply wi thin food products.\n DTSTAMP:20250513T024834Z END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT UID:6822b30246c25 DTSTART;TZID=America/Toronto:20170215T120000 SEQUENCE:0 TRANSP:TRANSPARENT DTEND;TZID=America/Toronto:20170215T133000 URL:/food-issues-group/events/watfig-meeting-christelle -genoud SUMMARY:WatFIG Meeting with Christelle Genoud CLASS:PUBLIC DESCRIPTION:Summary \n\nBIOFUELS NEVERLAND: FINDING ACCESS THROUGH THE GLOB AL VALUE CHAIN?\n\nThe 2007/2008 triple crisis (food\, finance and environ ment) prompted a\nnew wave of land grabbing characterized by its global an d financial\ndimensions. The World Bank deviated critics condemning loss o f access\nto land for smallholders by advocating for their integration in the\nglobal value chain. This paper questions this “win-win” discourse \,\nwhere agrifood industry benefits from natural resources and\nsmallhold ers from access to the global markets\, financial resources\nand infrastru cture.\n DTSTAMP:20250513T024834Z END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT UID:6822b302473f2 DTSTART;TZID=America/Toronto:20170126T120000 SEQUENCE:0 TRANSP:TRANSPARENT DTEND;TZID=America/Toronto:20170126T133000 URL:/food-issues-group/events/watfig-meeting-dr-leia-mi naker SUMMARY:WatFIG Meeting with Dr. Leia Minaker CLASS:PUBLIC DESCRIPTION:Summary \n\nPUBLIC HEALTH NUTRITION: WHERE DOES THE ENVIRONMENT FIT?\n\nAt a population-level\, Canadians' diet quality is less than opti mal to\npromote health. Historically\, public health nutrition professiona ls\nhave focused on nutrition education campaigns to promote healthy\ndiet s. More recently\, Canadian governments in many jurisdictions have\nbegun to recognize the importance of the food environment - the\nsettings and co ntexts in which Canadians purchase and consume foods\nand beverages - in d etermining nutritional health.\n DTSTAMP:20250513T024834Z END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT UID:6822b30247b95 DTSTART;TZID=America/Toronto:20161005T113000 SEQUENCE:0 TRANSP:TRANSPARENT DTEND;TZID=America/Toronto:20161005T130000 URL:/food-issues-group/events/oane-visser-farmland-move s-black-earth-narratives SUMMARY:Oane Visser - Farmland moves.
