by | June 21, 2011 | 1 comment

Pursue is teaming up with Hazon to offer partial scholarships to the Hazon Food Conference, this August 18-21.

The scholarships, which are designed for participants “interested in developing their leadership and networks in food justice work and activism,” cover up to 100% of registration fees (room and board not included). Participants will attend the full conference, which includes a built-out food justice and food policy track this year, and be a part of Pursue’s growing food justice cohort.

Recipients of the food justice scholarship are required to attend a pre-conference orientation call, actively participate in the conference’s food justice track, contribute a post to the Pursue blog, attend a debrief conference call, and bring back the ideas and energy from the conference to their home communities.

The deadline to apply is June 27. Read the full details here, and click here to apply.
