Amanda Green, SAFN President
Welcome to the new year SAFN members!
We want to draw your attention to SAFN’s Awards, which are all due March 31, 2024, this year. (This moves the deadline up from previous years, heads up!)
All SAFN Awards focus on supporting graduate and undergraduate students. As the future of our field, SAFN has always valued supporting their work.
SAFN membership is free for students, as long as they have a AAA membership.
In addition, if your university is a AAA DSP member, your undergraduate students gain one year of free membership to the AAA and thus, to SAFN.
AWARDS
- The Student Research Award supports the research phase of an original project focused on food and nutritional anthropology. This award is focused on decolonized, ethical research on food justice and food sovereignty.
- The Thomas Marchione Food-as-a-Human-Right Student Award supports research and writing that engages with food security and food sovereignty issues, honoring the legacy of Thomas Marchione.
- The Christine Wilson Awards includes one award for undergraduate research papers and another award for graduate student research papers that examine topics within the perspectives of nutrition, food studies and anthropology.
Please share this information widely in your food networks so that we can support as many students as possible.
Thank you to this year’s SAFN Award Committee, including Mecca Burris, Christy Spackman, and Jenn Jo Thompson. Thank you as well to Ryan Adams for serving on last year’s committee.
