Food, Politics, Labor and Social Media - a provocative discussion on the four areas that can put the Filipina community on the mainstream business map:
- Food, Labor and Social Media are the 3 areas that Filipinos are very engaged. We love to eat and we do things together best when we are at the dining table.
- The Food industry has a high employee population of Filipinos - who are underpaid and need to find ways to be recognized for their talent. Ramar Foods is the leading manufacturer of Filipino food and a major vendor to the US military - gives Filipino cusine an opportunity to be mainstream
- The politics of food - how and what we eat can influence the larger community and the food industry.
- How social media transforms the way we live and do business - Filipinos are the largest community of Facebook users. Can you imagine the power we wield?
- Why Filipina women should be engaged in politics - be at the table when decisions/policies are made that affect our communities and how we live.
- What is trending in politics, labor, food and law... more women in law schools, pathways to civic engagement, public service and politics
- Labor is the politics of work
