POSITION: Healthy Campus Food Environment Internship
ORGANIZATION: CUNY SPH – CUNY Urban Food Policy Institute (CUFPI)
The CUNY Urban Food Policy Institute (CUFPI) is an academic research and action center at the CUNY Graduate School of Public Health and Health Policy and is recruiting student leaders across all 25 campuses who are interested in advocating to improve the CUNY food environment.
Using research, policy analysis, advocacy, and education CUFPI works to change the structures, institutional practices, and environments that limit access to healthy affordable food and often make unhealthy food choices easier than healthy ones. In building upon the work of Healthy CUNY Initiative, a university-wide effort that takes on the health and social problems which can block academic success, we are working with the Center for Science in the Public Interest (CSPI), an independent science-based consumer advocacy organization with an impressive record of accomplishments and a clear agenda for improving campus food systems to support healthy eating.
Student opportunities are available in: Campus Organizing, Research, Outreach
Stipends available for eligible students!
Successful applicants will be invited to join a team of students, faculty, and staff seeking to change the food landscape at CUNY. In collaboration with CUFPI, you will help imagine what a progressive food environment at CUNY could look like. You will provide support for research and outreach at different campuses to better understand current campus food landscapes and student priorities for improving them in the future. Moreover, you will help assess food policies based on health, affordability, and other student priorities (e.g. convenience, preferences, cultural relevance). This project will culminate with a student-led campaign urging CUNY not to renew its beverage contract with PepsiCo, and instead find alternative solutions that are better aligned with the university’s mission to support students’ academic success and health/wellbeing. We have multiple roles available on our campaign team and we will consider your application in relation to them all. You will be able to rank your preferences (most to least preferred) based on your interests, skills and past experiences.
Qualifications:
- Currently enrolled CUNY graduate or undergraduate student
- Basic knowledge of Microsoft Teams, Google Suite, Zoom, Canva, Slack
- Strong written and oral communication skills
Preferred Qualifications
- Prior coursework, internship, volunteer or employment experience related to food security, advocacy, campaign building, health communications, food justice, policy work
- Demonstrated research and analytical skills
- Preference will be given to students who can commit to both fall 2022 and spring 2023
Additional Information: Selected students will receive on-going training and support to develop and lead a campaign to improve the campus food environment across CUNY. Students will begin their roles in September and continue until the end of the semester with the option to stay on for Spring 2023. The role will require both remote and in-person participation. Regular team meetings will be held online and scheduled based on everyone’s availability. Stipends are available for eligible students who apply. Students who wish to apply this experience to their fieldwork or internship requirements should consult with their campus academic and fieldwork advisors and Urban Food Policy Institute staff before committing to the program.
Application due Friday, September 30th
