Bite Me! Food Week

Bite Me! Started in 2013, as an annual week-long popular education event series that took place in September as part of orientation, hosted by the Concordia Food Coalition. The aim of the week was to provide students and the community with knowledge about food politics and the tools to change the Food System at Concordia and beyond. It has typically consisted of a combination of workshops, lectures, and experiential learning opportunities related to food politics, food security, and food sovereignty on campus and in our communities. As one of our major education and awareness projects, the CFC hosted the annual “Bite Me! Food Week” to introduce both new and returning students to food politics in their university and city. The event aimed to cover a diversity of food-related topics from campus-specific issues that directly affect Concordia students, to wider national food security issues and everything in between.
Themes included:
• Agro-industry and climate change
• Genetically-modified organisms and its repercussions
• Social movements around food security
• Defining food sovereignty on campus
• Gentrification and food deserts in our cities
• Community development through urban agriculture
• Intersections between feminism and food security
• Acknowledging animal rights in our food system
• DIY workshops (e.g. cooking, canning, etc.)
Since 2020, the Concordia Food Coalition has moved away from spearheading such intensive week-long educational events and is focusing on smaller educational events spread out throughout the year.
