Chapter 24 in Leadership After COVID-19, 2022, pp 429-439 from Springer

Abstract: Abstract This chapter will assess how the local food environment and the uncertainty of food security in areas affected by a lack of food sources affect the ability to have food and nutrition security. Based on the author’s dissertation research conducted during the doctoral program, this chapter further identifies how the regional food supply chain is affected by social determinants in the food system by using a qualitative and philosophical approach to food security and urban geography. The author also analyzes food accessibility among the local and systemic level through (a) the emerging rise of food pantries, (b) changes to food waste and food policy, and (c) food system activities related to food services more likely to affect the likelihood of food insecurity issues. The author also explains the benefits of a structurally, economically, and geographically diverse food system that includes food products needed for sustainable food banks and food services.
