He had an extraordinary talent for documenting, in compassionate and beautiful imagery, the human stories behind the headlines… His work has raised the visibility of many of the world’s forgotten conflicts.” -- Kenneth Roth, executive direc¬tor of Human Rights Watch; Dr. Jean Mayer Global Citizenship Award recipient, 2004 EPIIC this year has been dedicated to the British photographer and film-maker, Tim Hetherington, a Board member of the Institute’s Program on Narrative and Documentary Practice. He was killed while covering the war in Libya on April 20, 2011. Hetherington reported on many of the world’s most critical human rights stories: conflicts in Liberia, Afghanistan, Darfur, and Libya.

  • The 50Th Anniversary of the White House Conference on FOOD, NUTRITION, and HEALTH
    The 50th Anniversary of The White House Conference on FOOD, NUTRITION, AND HEALTH October 3-4, 2019 Boston, Massachusetts INTRODUCTION Looking Back, Moving Forward Thank you for joining us to celebrate the 50th Anniversary of the 1969 White House Conference on Food, Nutrition, and Health. The Tufts Friedman School of Nutrition Science & Policy and the Harvard TH Chan School Department of Nutrition are proud to be co-hosts and share our history with Dr. Jean Mayer, a professor at the Harvard School of Public Health when he chaired the 1969 Conference who went on to become the President of Tufts University where he founded the School of Nutrition. In thinking about the 1969 White House Conference, there is much to celebrate, including the impressive bipartisanship, ambition, inclusivity, and productivity of the 1969 event. Approximately 3,000 attendees from all sectors and walks of life brought forth 1,800 recommendations for improving food programs, 1,600 of which were implemented. Many of the federal food President Nixon's remarks at the opening of the programs we take for granted today were 1969 White House Conference, when he established or expanded after the famously called for a major expansion of the conference, including the Food Stamp Food Stamp Program and an end to hunger in Program, the School Lunch Program, and the America. WIC program. T oday, 50 years after the 1969 Conference, our country faces a very different national nutrition crisis. Our health and economy are being devastated by rising rates of obesity, diabetes, and other diet-related chronic diseases, rising healthcare costs, continuing food insecurity, and growing disparities.
