Thesis (M.U.R.P.)--University of Colorado at Denver, 2018.

This thesis explores the intersectional space that links community food systems with historic social and cultural frameworks. In furthering food justice, food systems planners must incorporate, if not also prioritize, intersectional social justice concerns to address the current inequities in our food systems. Evaluating social justice strategies in the development of sustainable community food systems, my research explores policies, methodologies, and planning practices being used in the field of food justice.

520 $a This thesis explores the intersectional space that links community food systems with historic social and cultural frameworks. In furthering food justice, food systems planners must incorporate, if not also prioritize, intersectional social justice concerns to address the current inequities in our food systems. Evaluating social justice strategies in the development of sustainable community food systems, my research explores policies, methodologies, and planning practices being used in the field of food justice.
520 $a By connecting food justice activism with other social justice activities, planning practitioners and community advocates support community stakeholders through Collective Impact strategies, providing cross-sector support, resource-sharing, and educational tools to holistically address the goals for re-establishing healthy communities. Applying principles of advocacy, food justice advocates use bottom-up, grassroots approaches to focus on empowerment, collective education, and barrier-proof participation, while providing resources to obtain and sustain fresh food access. Social and cultural contexts are explored to appropriately address healthy food access concerns among specific population groups. Strategies for supporting equitable access to sustainable community food systems prioritize respect and empowerment and consider first the needs and desires of the community being served. Food justice principles employ the community's unique strengths, cultural wisdoms, and powerful social ties to further strengthen sustainable food access.
520 $a In hopes of growing the field of food justice, my research focuses on how the creation of sustainable community food systems addresses concerns of food insecurity among low-income communities of color. By exploring case studies that tackle food insecurity through a food justice lens, this paper evaluates strengths, as well as potential gaps and flaws, of the food justice strategies currently employed. Through these findings, the integration of other social justice strategies may be useful in closing any gaps found and help further strengthen the community's ability to sustain healthy and affordable food access.
