The program addresses the most debated contemporary issues relating to food policy, sovereignty and sustainability, with a particular focus on: 1. world landscapes of gastronomy, food systems and culinary cultures; 2. emerging trends and global changes in food systems and cultures resulting from intensive mobilities of people, social imaginaries, ideals, goods and capital; 3. worldwide, non-Western and decolonized perspectives on food production, distribution and consumption; 4. the promotion of biodiversity and cultural diversity The University applies a system of educational credits to its curriculum, which corresponds to the procedures in place in Inter-University Collaboration Relations. This master is a first-level master, with a total of 90 ECTS credits (1 ECTS credit = approx. 25 hours of student work). Calendar The calendar of classes, study trips, and other programmed events can be found here. Morning and afternoon sessions are generally scheduled as follows: 10:00 a.m. – 1:15 p.m. 2:15 pm – 5:30 p.m. Program Structure The program’s structure is based on an interdisciplinary study of gastronomic sciences, with an emphasis on an active and experiential learning experience for students. The program is divided between: 1. Classes, with two types of course: . Survey courses taught by leading international scholars providing an advanced introduction to food studies and exploring cutting-edge thinking about food in different academic fields. Specialised courses taught by academics, experts, and activists, focusing on: Contemporary perspectives on food and the world foodscapes; Food systems, sustainability and cultural politics of food; Food cultures and world cuisines; Key concepts covered during classes include: . the fast-changing landscape of gastronomy and culinary cultures; . food politics, food governance, and food justice; . the environmental and social sustainability of farming, food processing, and trade; 3 . human migrations, the mobility of food, and multiculturalism; . developing trends in food marketing, representation, and taste; . regional, national, and experimental cuisines. 2. Tastings: Courses and workshops taught by professionals offering an advanced introduction to historical aspects, qualities and evaluation, introducing students to the multi-sensorial evaluation of selected world ingredients. 3. Study trips: Three one-week study trips (one in Italy, one in Europe and another outside Europe) provide students with a profound understanding of global food systems, both artisanal and industrial, by visiting far-flung places and going behind the scenes of food production. Study trips allow students to meet the real protagonists of contemporary food systems, such as farmers, producers, chefs and other food professionals, while tasting typical products in their areas of origin. 4. Internship: The internship aims to give students the opportunity to explore, through work experience, some of the topics studied during the previous months of classes and study trips. Alternatively, students can choose to pursue an individual research project. 5. Final thesis and presentation: To be completed under the guidance of a faculty advisor on a topic relating to the program’s content and expected to bring new original knowledge to the field of food studies. Because of the complexity of the program design, changes may occur from time to time due to unforeseen issues. All changes will be communicated as quickly as possible, and for the best overall experience, students are requested to work collaboratively with staff in finding and accommodating solutions. Program Requirements an undergraduate or first-level degree proficiency in written and spoken English Programmed activities include lectures, seminars, panel discussions, hands-on workshops, field study trips in Italy and abroad, and the final internship. In all, students are expected to commit to an overall workload of approximately 2250 hours, which corresponds to 90 university educational credits in compliance with article 7 of Ministerial Decree 270/2004. 4 Study Plan Name: Master of Gastronomy: World Food Cultures and Mobility Convenor: Prof. Simone Cinotto Starting Date: October 16th, 2019 ECTS Academic Activity Professor Professor Affilitation Hours ES (exam)/ Name Surname (Institution, freq company, (attendance) organization) CONTEMPORARY PERSPECTIVES ON THE WORLD FOODSCAPE 6 Food History Daniel Bender University of 15 ES Toronto 6 Food Anthropology David Sutton University of 15 ES Southern Illinois 6 Food and Sustainability Colin Sage University of Cork 15 ES 6 Food and Public Health Stanley Uljaszek University of 15 ES Oxford 6 Food Philosophy Nicola Perullo UNISG 12 ES 6 Food Psychology Peter Todd Indiana University 15 ES 6 Food Writing Corby Kummer Journalist USA 15 ES 6 Food Photography

  • The Gradual Loss of African Indigenous Vegetables in Tropical America: a Review
    The Gradual Loss of African Indigenous Vegetables in Tropical America: A Review 1 ,2 INA VANDEBROEK AND ROBERT VOEKS* 1The New York Botanical Garden, Institute of Economic Botany, 2900 Southern Boulevard, The Bronx, NY 10458, USA 2Department of Geography & the Environment, California State University—Fullerton, 800 N. State College Blvd., Fullerton, CA 92832, USA *Corresponding author; e-mail: [email protected] Leaf vegetables and other edible greens are a crucial component of traditional diets in sub-Saharan Africa, used popularly in soups, sauces, and stews. In this review, we trace the trajectories of 12 prominent African indigenous vegetables (AIVs) in tropical America, in order to better understand the diffusion of their culinary and ethnobotanical uses by the African diaspora. The 12 AIVs were selected from African reference works and preliminary reports of their presence in the Americas. Given the importance of each of these vegetables in African diets, our working hypothesis was that the culinary traditions associated with these species would be continued in tropical America by Afro-descendant communities. However, a review of the historical and contemporary literature, and consultation with scholars, shows that the culinary uses of most of these vegetables have been gradually lost. Two noteworthy exceptions include okra (Abelmoschus esculentus) and callaloo (Amaranthus viridis), although the latter is not the species used in Africa and callaloo has only risen to prominence in Jamaica since the 1960s. Nine of the 12 AIVs found refuge in the African- derived religions Candomblé and Santería, where they remain ritually important. In speculating why these AIVs did not survive in the diets of the New World African diaspora, one has to contemplate the sociocultural, economic, and environmental forces that have shaped—and continue to shape—these foodways and cuisines since the Atlantic slave trade.

This podcast is part of a continuing series we’re doing at Cigna focused on health equity. I recently interviewed Dr. Ina Vandebroek [VAN DE BROOK] in her office at the New York Botanical Garden. Dr. Vandebroek’s office was filled with all kinds of plants – and plant materials. In this interview, she talks about her work as an ethnobotanist and how her research on the use of medicinal plants in Carribbean and Latino communities can lead to improved health equity in those communities. Here’s Ina [EENAH] introducing her work… INA VANDEBROEK Well, I’m a researcher here at the New York Botanical Garden and the Matthew Calbraith Perry Assistant Curator of Economic Botany and the Caribbean Program Director at the Institute of Economic Botany of the New York Botanical Garden. My research is focused on the links between culture, health, and plants – botany. So, I study how cultural groups, communities in New York City, and I’m focusing on Caribbean communities and Latino communities, use medicinal plants for their health care and what their cultural beliefs about health are, and that research, those results are used to develop cultural competency training with health care providers. SHANNON MCCORMICK What is cultural competence and what does it look like? INA VANDEBROEK Cultural competency training is teaching medical students, residents, and healthcare providers on how to become more culturally sensitive with their Latino and Caribbean patients.

We studied the small city of Chachapoyas (~34,000 in- habitants) in the northern Peruvian Andes. We divided the city into three areas according to the socio-economic characteristics of its inhabitants: city center (high), intermediate area (medium), and city periphery (low). We gathered information with 450 participants through semi-structured inter- views. Participants of the city periphery showed a higher TK of medicinal plants than participants of Citation: Corroto, F.; Rascón, J.; the intermediate area, and the latter showed a higher TK than participants of the city center.
