Marc Wegerif who has worked on development and human rights issues will present this seminar.
The Development Studies Programme in the School of Social Sciences will be hosting a seminar presentation based on a qualitative study of the food system that is feeding Dar es Salaam.
The research has explored what enables the food system and some of its socio-economic and environmental outcomes. Of particular interest is how a wide range of small scale and interdependent actors produce the food and get it to urban eaters at a city feeding scale without large vertically, or horizontally, integrated corporate structures.
Marc Wegerif who has worked on development and human rights issues in a range of organisations for more than 27 years and contributed to political and social transformation through other voluntary roles in community and political organisations will present this seminar.
