Food Change: An Innovative Agri-Food Program

The Food Change minor is dedicated to raising student awareness of the challenges facing the agri-food sector. This program questions current production and consumption practices while promoting sustainable and responsible solutions. This year, food seasonality is at the heart of the discussions, a theme designed to bridge the gap between consumers and environmentally respectful agricultural cycles.

An Immersion into Agri-Food Realities

To kick off the second year of Food Change, our students from the Toulouse campus took part in the Agri-Agro Pro event on December 4th at the Toulouse National Wholesale Market (MIN). They attended conferences and expert pitches, conducted interviews with key stakeholders, and participated in roundtable discussions. This event gave them a deeper understanding of seasonality issues and offered a tangible perspective on the challenges faced by the industry.

Minors like Food Change provide students with a practical and interactive approach to strategic topics. By exploring concepts such as food seasonality and engaging with industry players, students develop an awareness of contemporary challenges and potential solutions. These initiatives enhance their employability while shaping a generation of responsible and committed leaders.

Conclusion

The Food Change minor is more than just a course; it’s an introduction to key societal issues. Through meetings, farm visits, and hands-on projects, our students continue to learn in a meaningful and enriching context that prepares them to make a positive impact.
