Each year, the Center for Ethics and Human Values selects a challenging theme for its “Conversations on Morality, Politics, and Society” (COMPAS) program, inviting speakers from a variety of disciplines and perspectives to help faculty, students, and other community members think constructively about next steps for our society. Complex ethical challenges need input from different areas of expertise, and COMPAS brings these voices together for wide-ranging, problem-solving discussions.
For 2025-2026, I am serving as the convener and organizer for this series, focusing on the topic of Food.
The Spring 2026 series is as follows:
Food Markets and Industry (January 23)
Food Agriculture and Policy (February 27)
Food Technology and Democracy (March 13)
For the Fall 2025 recordings of the talks: Food as Health; Food as Animals; Food as Regulation
Australian ELSI Genomics Network Seminar, March 14, 2024 11 am - 12:30 pm AEDT (March 13, 8:00 - 9:30 pm EDT)
