Presentation by Bill Emerson National Hunger Fellow Allison Bunyan as part of the briefing “The State of U.S. Hunger 2023” on Wednesday, February 15, 2023. Allison was part of the 29th Class of Emerson Fellows and was placed with Common Threads in Miami, Florida, from September 2022 to February 2023.
Allison is from Los Angeles, California where she graduated from CSU Northridge with a BS in Global Supply Chain Management and a minor in Economics. While in school, she worked in many fields such as transportation planning, international affairs, economic development, and public policy. During her 2019-2020 service as a Peace Corps Mongolia health education volunteer, she became interested in the connections between sustainable agriculture, environmental health, and public health, which led her to pursue work in organic farming, environmental conservation, and food systems development. Now, Allison joins the 29th cohort of Emerson Fellows to work towards building a more sustainable, resilient, and equitable food system.
