Yasmeen Lee ’20 to talk food security in North Carolina for Data Nexus Speaker Series

Alumni Yasmeen Lee '20 will speak about food security as a part of the Data Nexus Power of Women in Data Series.

Yasmeen Lee ’20, an Elon alumna and evaluation specialist at Food Insight Group, will return to campus on Thursday, Sept. 19, to talk about ways in which researchers can center community experiences and storytelling to understand food security in North Carolina.

Qualitative data will be discussed as a way to provide context and narrative to commonly captured metrics of food security. This talk will also provide actionable ways to get involved in local and state food systems and opportunities to engage in research.
