SUMMARY:Environment and Health Seminar Series: Access to Fisheries within Changing Food Systems with Kathryn Fiorella
DESCRIPTION:\nWhen and Where\n\n\n\nWednesday, March 26, 2025 2:00 pm to 4:00 pm\n\n\n\n\n\n\nSpeakers\n\n\n\nKathryn Fiorella\n\n\n\n\n\n\nDescription\n\n\n\n\nAbout the Seminar\nFish are touted as sustainable and nutritious, but growing global demand for fish and expanding aquaculture are quickly reshaping these food systems. At the same time, our global freshwaters are experiencing the most dramatic falls in biodiversity and wild fisheries will continue to be a major source of food. As aquatic food systems and environments are revamped, what does that mean for the people who live and work within these systems? How does it impact their choices about how to use fisheries and their access to biodiversity within them? Using the case of Cambodia’s social-ecological food systems, this seminar will examine these questions. This talk will ask both how people adapt and the constraints they face, and the ramifications of environmental change for their health and well-being — and how global fisheries connect to us all.\nAbout the Speaker\nAssociate Professor Department of Public and Ecosystem Health Cornell University I am an environmental scientist and epidemiologist, and my research aims to understand the interactions among environmental change and livelihood, food, and nutrition security. My work is focused on global fisheries and the households that are reliant on the environment to access food and income. I use interdisciplinary methods and my work aims to foster a deeper understanding of how ecological and social systems interact, the ways communities and households adapt to and mitigate environmental change, and the links between human well being and ecological sustainability. My work has been funded by NSF, USAID, National Geographic and more, and I have published more than 55 peer-reviewed journal articles. I am a co-editor of the book, Foundations of Socio-Environmental Research: Legacy Readings with Commentaries, which is an anthology of 53 foundational readings tracing the history of socio-environmental research from the late 1700s onward. I am an Associate Professor in the Department of Public and Ecosystem Health at Cornell University, and I lead the Food Systems and Health Concentration area of the Master of Public Health Program. I am the faculty director of the Migrations Program in the Einaudi Center; a Faculty Fellow of the K. Lisa Yang Center for Wildlife Health, Cornell Atkinson Center and the Center for Health Equity; and a core faculty member of the Southeast Asia Program. I hold a PhD in Environmental Science, Policy & Management and a Master of Public Health from the University of California, Berkeley, and an AB in Ecology and Evolutionary Biology from Princeton University.\n\nRegister below to attend online:\nRegister\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nContact Information\n\nevents.environment@utoronto.ca ( mailto:events.environment@utoronto.ca )\n\n\n
