Founding Faculty Member of the Alternative Agrifood Researchers Without Borders (AARWB) 2009-2018 A collective, international endeavor designed to encourage PhD students to draw upon the expertise of faculty

where local expertise may be scarce in this area. If a student wishes to conduct research on a specific agrifood topic involving alternative developments, a search of the faculty on the AARWB could yield a person with specific expertise or interest similar to that of the student. The same applies with local, regional, national interests/expertise. http://alternativeagrifoodrwb.ning.com/

AESS “seeks to strengthen teaching, research and service in environmental studies and sciences, and to improve communication across boundaries that too often divide the traditional academic disciplines – the physical, biological, and social sciences, and the humanities – that need to be brought to bear in understanding and dealing with environmental problems and solutions. The association works to support the professional development of Association members not just as individuals but also to advance Environmental Studies and Sciences as a whole.” www.aess.info
