Fresco"},"content":{"rendered":"

As part of its Patron Saint's Day celebrations on 15 February 2017, KU Leuven will confer an honorary doctorate on sustainable food specialist Louise O. Fresco. <\/p>\n

Professor Louise O. Fresco is a unique voice in the academic and social debate on sustainable food supply. She was one of the first to emphasize that our food requires a well-considered and widely supported policy that incorporates the common ground with other major social challenges: under- and overweight, environmental impact, climate change, biodiversity, economic and social developments. Fresco boosts the food debate with international organisations, through columns, on television, and in books for a non-specialist audience. "Food is the source of much confusion today," she states in her most famous book, Hamburgers in Paradise (2012), but also: "We are who we are because of what we eat, and with whom. What it means to be human is concentrated in food and in our understanding of it." <\/p>\n

Fresco has been president of the Wageningen UR Executive Board since 2014.<\/p>\n

The nominators of this honorary doctorate are Professors Wannes Keulemans and Annemie Geeraerd. <\/p>\n
