North American Food Systems Network (NAFSN) will be hosting the Spring 2026 edition of its webinar series Finding Your Future in Food Systems. There will be four webinars available, which are free and open to the public.
This program will provide participants with connections and insights to help them identify next steps for their careers in food systems.
The series includes speakers from a wide variety of sectors within the food systems profession: policy & advocacy, market development, food access initiatives, value chain development, education, and farming, both urban and rural.
The speakers will be from job-creating organizations, agencies, and businesses, some working locally in their communities, others with national and international scope. This series is produced by college students for college students and other emerging professionals.
