A full-length documentary highlighting the relationship between water, food security and, ultimately, global security, features UC Merced researchers and is scheduled to premiere Sept. 14 in downtown Merced.
UC Merced’s branch of the Blum Center for Developing Economies rebooted this spring with a faculty-led effort to spend two years working on becoming the hub for all food-security-related research and outreach on and off campus.
Part of that effort includes seed grants for UC Merced researchers. The Blum Center just announced this year’s winners:
UC Merced is partnering with the Merced County Fair to support Mercy Medical Center’s "We Care Wednesday" Community Food Drive presented by EECU and University Industrial Park.
Anyone can join the fight against hunger and gain free admittance to the fair by bringing five or more cans of food from 5 to 7 p.m. on opening night, June 7.
UC Merced is taking steps to fight hunger and tackle food waste on campus and across Merced County.
Earth Week is UC Merced’s chance to highlight some of the ways the campus community is committed to being good stewards of the environment.
