The course, the first of its kind in Israel and led by Prof. Roni Strier from the School of Social Work, explores the phenomenon of food insecurity. This issue is characterized by limited food availability and the inability to access food through conventional means for basic, healthy, and balanced nutrition. Food insecurity has a significant impact on both the physical and mental health of individuals. Additionally, research shows that it impairs the ability of affected individuals to build healthy social and familial relationships and to integrate into social structures, including the labor market.
