Senior Academic Community Manager
The Good Food Institute
Event description
Students have an outsized influence on shaping the academic ecosystem from the inside out, but their power is largely untapped. The Alt Protein Project is a global community of student groups that seeks to change that. We inspire, train, and empower students to establish their universities as hubs for alternative protein research, education, and innovation, and—in so doing—we propel students to the forefront of the alternative protein movement. Read more about our community and apply to join.
If you have any questions, join our information sessions for interested student organizers on February 13 to learn more about what it takes to join this vibrant community of leaders and change-makers.
