Transformations of Global Food Systems for Climate Change Resilience: Addressing Food Security, Nutrition, and Health provides poignant case studies of climate change resilience frameworks for nutrition-focused transformations of agriculture and food systems, food security, food sovereignty, and population health of underserved and marginalized communities from across the globe. Each chapter is drawn from diverse cultural contexts and geographic areas, addressing local challenges of ongoing food and health system transformations and illustrating forms of resistance, resilience, and adaptations of food systems to climate change.
Fourteen chapters present global case studies, which directly address the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals and the Food and Agriculture Organization’s global call to action for transforming agriculture, addressing food security and nutrition, and the health of populations impacted by climate change and public health issues.They also integrate reflections, insights, and experiences resulting from the COVID-19 Pandemic.
This edited volume includes research on (1) enhancing food sovereignty and food security for underserved populations with a particular focus on indigenous peoples; (2) improving locally contextualized definitions and measurements of climate change resilience, food security, hunger, nutrition, and health; (3) informing public health programs and policies for population health and nutrition; and (4) facilitating public and policy discourse on sustainable futures for community health and nutrition in the face of climate change and natural disasters, including ongoing and future pandemics or emergencies.
Within this book, readers discover an array of approaches by the authors that exemplify the mutually engaged and reciprocal partnerships that are community-driven and support the positive transformation of the people with whom they work. By doing so, this book informs and drives a global sustainable future of scholarship and policy that is tied to the intersectionality and synergisms of climate change resilience, food security, food sovereignty, nutrition, and community health.

She is currently an independent scholar with expertise in interdisciplinary, community-based, multi-level programs and policies that address social determinants of health and health equity for marginalized populations. She has worked on public health programs with Indigenous and urban communities in North America (Native Americans/Alaska Natives, Baltimore, New York, Chicago), South America (Ecuador), Asia (Thailand), and Africa (Ghana, Nigeria, Mozambique). Dr. Gadhoke is the recipient of the 2020 Fulbright Global Research Fellowship and 2019 Catholic Relief Services Global Health Research Award. In her academic career, she has served the scientific community with the American Anthropology Association (AAA), Agriculture, Food, and Human Values Society, and Society for Applied Anthropology, American Public Health Association, and an appointed member of AAA’s Presidential Task Force on World Food Problems. At St. John’s University, she served as an Interim Director of the Master of Public Health Program and mentor for the Ozanam Scholars program, McNair Scholars program, Master of Arts degree program in Global Development and Social Justice, and Senior Fellow, Vincentian Center for Church and Society. Dr. Gadhoke is extensively published in public health and anthropology, presented numerous papers at international and national scientific conferences, and served as a reviewer for multiple journals. She brings cross-cutting perspectives to academia from multilateral, governmental, and industry work experiences. Her passion about addressing the social ecology of food systems, nutrition, and disease prevention stems from her early memories of health disparities that she witnessed as a child within her East and West Indian communities. Dr. Gadhoke earned her PhD in International Health from The Johns Hopkins Bloomberg School of Public Health, MPH in Health Policy and Management from Emory University Rollins School of Public Health, and a BA in Biology and Sociology/Anthropology at Knox College.

As a specialist on the anthropology of sustainable food systems, nutrition. health, climate change and environmental justice, his cross-cultural and applied fieldwork experience has focused on engagement with Indigenous communities in North America, South American, and Sub-Saharan Africa, and in urban NYC and Upstate NY rural underserved communities. In addition to numerous papers presented at national and international conferences, he has an extensive publication record in the areas of food security, nutrition, health disparities and sustainable global development. Dr. Brenton’s commitment to creating sustainable and resilient food systems to climate change through food justice and food sovereignty advocacy stems from his experience of working and growing up in rural farming communities in Iowa and Nebraska.
