This second annual LAMP symposium explored the current practices and ethical challenges of food production and consumption from religious, scientific, historical, and public policy perspectives. In keeping with the LAMP vision to promote multifaith understanding in a religiously plural society, speakers addressed the unifying concerns for food justice and sustainability and the distinct practices of food preparation and eating that sustain religious communities.

Rabbi Dr. Jonathan K. Crane, Raymond F. Schinazi Scholar in Bioethics and Jewish Thought at Emory University’s Center for Ethics, presented the keynote address, and 11 guest panelists spoke at the symposium.
