Description
The Fourth International Conference on Food Studies will be held from 20 to 21 October 2014 in Prato, Italy. In a time of growing public interest in diet, health and nutritional research, the Food Studies conference aims to examine the agricultural, environmental, economic and cultural perspectives of food through an interdisciplinary lens.
It will feature a range of presentations from broad theoretical and global policy explorations, to detailed studies of specific human-physiological, nutritional and social dynamics of food.
The International Conference on Food Studies travels to Prato, Italy in 2014. The Conference will address a range of critically important issues and themes relating to the Food Studies community. Plenary speakers include some of the leading thinkers in these areas, as well as numerous paper, colloquium and workshop presentations.
We are inviting proposals for paper presentations, workshops/interactive sessions, posters/exhibits, or colloquia (See Proposal Types). Proposal ideas that extend beyond these thematic areas will also be considered. For more information about the ideas and themes underlying this community, see Our Focus. We also offer participation options for those individuals who cannot attend the conference. Authors who wish to submit an article for potential publication in the Food Studies: An Interdisciplinary Journal may submit a Proposal for Article Submission, while all members of the knowledge community with an accepted proposal may submit an online presentation to the knowledge community YouTube channel.
Deadline: 07 July 2014
