Assessing the sustainability of the University of British Columbia Food System Au-Yeung, Mary; Coosemans, Johan; Hanna, Mike; Kung, Marisa; Nam, Ji Hee (Jessica); Ramadan, Maysoon; Tronson, Jyoti
Abstract
The UBC community is made up of over thirty thousand people with an elaborate food system made up of four sub-systems. Each sub-system of the UBC Food System is made up of many components. In order to assess the sustainability of the UBC Food System, the UBC Food System was mapped, underlying value assumptions were defined, indicators were proposed, and a model was designed. Assessing the sustainability of the UBC Food System is complex and involves not only the sub-systems of the UBC Food System, but the Sustainability Office of UBC and the whole UBC community as well. Disclaimer: “UBC SEEDS provides students with the opportunity to share the findings of their studies, as well as their opinions, conclusions and recommendations with the UBC community. The reader should bear in mind that this is a student project/report and is not an official document of UBC. Furthermore readers should bear in mind that these reports may not reflect the current status of activities at UBC. We urge you to contact the research persons mentioned in a report or the SEEDS Coordinator about the current status of the subject matter of a project/report.”
