Book Transformative Driving Forces in Organic Food Systems  A Roadmap toward the Sustainable Development Goals

Download or read book Transformative Driving Forces in Organic Food Systems A Roadmap toward the Sustainable Development Goals written by Sebastian Kretschmer and published by BoD – Books on Demand. This book was released on 2022-01-01 with total page 274 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The organic food and farming movement has lately been portrayed as a food system in its own right since it contains all necessary sub-systems, consisting of food environments, distribution networks, processing, as well as production and supply, all of which are bounded by an organic guarantee system. This dissertation critically reviews the discourse on driving forces in food systems and argues that mindset is the primary predictor for food system outcomes. While “yield per hectare” and “go big or go out” narratives are still driving the food system’s overall trajectory, transformative worldviews are beginning to transcend the Dominant Social Paradigm. This dissertation wants to showcase how mindset qualities such as those found in organic food systems (OFS) and their resulting driving forces are converging with the trajectories of the UN Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) and other food system transformation agendas. The hypotheses that shall be valorized in this dissertation are the following: (1) Drivers in OFS convey narratives that appeal to the human need for self-determination, and transcendence, evoking sustainable happiness and personal responsibility; (2) OFS Drivers promote a paradigm shift that is conducive to achieving the Agenda 2030 for Sustainable Development, and (3) OFS Drivers around the world display specific sustainability patterns, irrespective of geographical-climatic, political-economic, and socio-cultural conditions. Through integrated fi ndings from actor-centered mixedmethods grounded theory (MM-GT) research involving the documentation of eleven case territories, this work identifi ed a pattern of global mindset attributes that drives OFS actors toward holistic human and sustainable development.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Regulation by Proxy catalogues the intermediaries that are critical to organic certification, including the National Organic Standards Board, accredited certifying agents, organic inspectors, the California State Organic Program, the Accredited Certifiers Association, the International Organic Inspectors Association, and material review organizations. Drawing on a range of evidence, from original data to the work of prominent food policy authors, Carter assesses each intermediary’s contributions to organic standards development, administration, and enforcement.

Book Environmental Policy and Public Health

Download or read book Environmental Policy and Public Health written by Barry L. Johnson and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2022-02-27 with total page 384 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Written by environmental health experts with long teaching and professional careers in policy and public health, the third edition of Environmental Policy and Public Health comprises two volumes addressing key physical hazards in the environment that impact public health. The first volume on Principal Health Hazards and Mitigation is complemented by the second volume, Emerging Health Hazards and Mitigation. The health of the environment is inextricably linked to that of people. Thoroughly updated, Volume 1 describes how the quality of air, water, and food is threatened by the presence of toxic substances and explains why climate change is a global health priority already impacting human health and the environment. The mitigations discussed in this volume are twofold: policies that are intended for control of specific hazards and suggested hazard interventions. The role of policy in addressing each of these key environmental health areas is extensively discussed in this volume as well. Each chapter explains step by step how new environmental health issues are translated into public health policies and concludes with practice questions to facilitate interactive learning for upper-level undergraduate and graduate students taking courses in public health and environmental sciences. The step-by step approach, as well as the case studies and practice questions, allow for a diverse portfolio of in-person and hybrid pedagogical strategies and tools at the fingertips of faculty who not only teach policy courses, but whose course topics, such as climate and health, have policy relevance.

Book Health Equity in a Globalizing Era

Download or read book Health Equity in a Globalizing Era written by Ronald Labonté and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2019-03-13 with total page 480 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Why do some countries and populations suffer from poverty and ill health, whilst others are more prosperous and healthy? What are the inherently global (trans-border) issues that affect inequities in disease burden and health opportunities for individuals and nations? Traditionally, the focus of global health has been 'international health': the concern for high burdens of disease in generally low-income countries. To answer these questions however, we need to modernise our understanding of globalization as a phenomenon. Health Equity in a Globalizing Era: Past Challenges, Future Prospects examines how globalization processes since the on-set of neoliberalism affect equity in global health outcomes, and emphasises access to important social determinants of health. With a basis in political economy, the book covers key globalization concepts and theory, and presents a thorough background to the field. Case studies, illustrations, and new research all combine to make this title a comprehensive and current discussion of the various pathways that connect globalization to health equity outcomes. It looks at changes in migration, labour markets, trade and investment rules, international development assistance, health systems, infectious and non-communicable disease risks, environmental health, and gendered aspects of globalization's health dialectic. In addition, it argues for a reform of the global governance structure, the significant role of human rights, and the importance of a strong civil society in achieving greater social justice in health. Ideal for senior undergraduate and graduate students in global health programs, global health scholars and practitioners in government policy and health/development NGOs, Health Equity in a Globalizing Era: Past Challenges, Future Prospects is a significant contribution to our new understanding of globalization and global public health.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “A great blueprint for changing your life . . . This book provides food for the body and for the soul.” —Pamela A. Popper, PhD, ND, author of Food Over Medicine By combining her decades-long study of both nutrition and scripture, Cyd Notter has created The “Plan A” Diet to serve as a message of hope to those who are nutritionally confused, suffer with declining health, or continually flit from one failed diet plan to another. The book provides a simple, achievable answer for permanent weight loss and improved health, as well as useful insights for dealing with resistance to change. Research confirms that plant-based nutrition is more powerful in restoring health than drugs or surgery, and is proven to be the only diet capable of reversing our number one killer: heart disease. Readers ready to take an active role in their health are equipped with a meal plan, tips for evaluating conflicting information, and an optional transition strategy. Prayer and biblical support has also been included to encourage people of faith. By correlating today’s unbiased science with the wisdom of applicable scripture, the book illustrates why God’s first prescribed diet for mankind—His “Plan A” Diet—remains the ideal food to this day.
