TLRH | Unhealthy Dublin: Food Sharing and Sustainability within Cities

Recorded October 15, 2020. A panel discussion as part of the
'Trinity and the Changing City' Series. Unlike Cork, Waterford and
Galway, Dublin is not a ‘healthy city’. Why is this? And what makes
a city ‘healthy’? What policies and actions are in place? And how
can evidence-based research inform such policies and actions? A
panel of distinguished experts discusses these and related issues.
Contributors include Anna Davies, Professor of Geography,
Environment and Society at Trinity who will speak about findings
from her ERC project SHARECITY in relation to physical/mental
wellbeing from food sharing; Denise Cahill, Healthy Cities
Coordinator Cork City, who will discuss her work in Healthy Cities
including work with the Cork Food Policy Council; and Professor
Richard Layte, Professor of Sociology at Trinity, who will examine
the links between food environment and health. Trinity and the
Changing City is organised by the Identities in Transformation
research theme, led by Daniel Faas, Department of Sociology, and is
supported by the Trinity Long Room Hub Arts and Humanities Research
Institute. Learn more at: https://www.tcd.ie/trinitylongroomhub/
