• Event: The Political Ecology of COVID-19: From Global Agribusiness to the Urban Campus

  For over fifteen years evolutionary epidemiologist Rob Wallace has warned that industrial agriculture would lead to global pandemics, such as the Covid-19 pandemic we're living through now. Join Wallace for a clear-sighted talk on the political economy of the pandemic, how deadly pathogens such as COVID-19 emerge out of industrial agriculture, and the strategies we might pursue to protect our health and the future health of our communities. Wallace’s talk will be followed by an open discussion with New School faculty, staff and students focusing on how we can best negotiate care for our health and one another in our return-to-campus. He will also help us consider how our university might help to prevent the emergence of future, and perhaps even more deadly, pandemics.
