To strengthen this region’s network of food system leaders, the Black Food Sovereignty Coalition, Mudbone Grown, Oregon State University’s Center for Small Farms, the Multnomah County Health Department REACH program, and Ecotrust have partnered to offer the Viviane Barnett Fellowship for Food System Leaders. The Fellowship is an 18-month cohort-based fellowship program focused on leadership development at the intersection of agriculture, food systems, and climate.
The program is for aspiring, emerging, and experienced BIPOC leaders working across sectors to build equitable, climate-resilient food systems. The fellowship will support 10-15 leaders in Oregon and includes a $4,000 stipend, quarterly trainings, gatherings, networking, and mentorship.
