Hi everyone, PROOF and CDPAC are putting on a second free webinar on food insecurity. This webinar will focus on the drivers of vulnerability to food insecurity in Canada and discuss some of the research enabled by the food insecurity monitoring discussed in webinar #1 "Food Insecurity Measurement in Canada: Interpreting the Statistics". You can watch a recording of that here : http://proof.utoronto.ca/resources/webinar/#past. We hope you will join us for webinar #2. Please share widely. Who is vulnerable to household food insecurity and what does this mean for policy and practice? Date: April 13, 2017 from 1:00 - 2:30 pm EST Register now at: https://attendee.gotowebinar.com/register/7992737431982570755 Presenters: Valerie Tarasuk, PhD, Professor, University of Toronto and PROOF principal investigator Lynn McIntyre, MD, MHSc, FRCPC, FCAHS, Professor Emerita, University of Calgary and PROOF investigator Pat Vanderkooy, MSc, RD, Public Affairs Manager, Dietitians of Canada Description: Please join PROOF and CDPAC for a second webinar on household food insecurity. In this webinar, we will delve into the question of what drives vulnerability to household food insecurity in Canada. Drawing on the wealth of Canadian data collected during more than a decade of food insecurity monitoring, we will examine the social and economic circumstances of food insecure households and look at what has been found to underpin changes in household food insecurity status over time. We will also discuss the relationship between food insecurity and health, considering the evidence of a bidirectional relationship for some conditions. The interpretation of these findings by Dietitians of Canada in their recent Position Statement and Recommendations - Addressing Household Food Insecurity in Canada <http://www.dietitians.ca/Dietitians-Views/Food-Security/Household-Food-Inse curity.aspx> will also be shared as a platform for policy and practice recommendations. A recording will be made available after the webinar Many thanks, Tim Li PROOF Administrator --- Department of Nutritional Sciences University of Toronto Tel: 416-978-5452 Fax: 416-978-5882 Email: <mailto:[log in to unmask]> [log in to unmask] Website: <http://proof.utoronto.ca/> proof.utoronto.ca Twitter: <http://www.twitter.com/proofcanada> @proofcanada To manage subscriptions/passwords, or view archives, go to http://listserv.yorku.ca/archives/click4hp.html .
