Food Resilience and Dignity in Aging: Learning Session

  • Arts Hub Ortona 9722 102 Street Northwest Edmonton, AB, T5K 0X4 Canada (map)

As Edmonton’s aging population continues to grow, it is crucial to include the voices of older adults in conversations and decision-making around culturally-relevant food-access and dignity in aging. The Food Security & Food Justice Ecosystem of Edmonton (FSFJE) invites you to join an upcoming learning session that will aim to give space for and amplify the voices and lived experiences of older adults as we talk food resilience and dignity in aging.

Hear from seniors and agency representatives from the Edmonton Age Friendly Alliance, Edmonton Seniors Coordinating Council, Edmonton Meals on Wheels, and Sage Seniors Association as they share personal narratives and frontline insights. This interactive session explore how food insecurity impacts older adults, particularly around mobility, income, housing, and cultural food access, and examine how older adults are actively engaging in food resilience.

This is a hybrid event: join in-person (Arts Hub Ortona—9722 102 St NW, Edmonton) or online.

Registration is required.
