FIELDS is an interdisciplinary research/teaching initiative dedicated to agricultural and food ethics, hosted by the Rock Ethics Institute and convened by Robert Chiles. We operate as an ad-hoc, informal professional network for research, grant writing, publishing, peer-to-peer faculty mentoring, and student training. In 2023-2024, our primary projects involving REI funding were: (1) “The End of Eden,” a presentation and book signing by the South African environmental writer Adam Welz; (2) “Facilitating Ethical Decision-Making among School Foodservice Stakeholders”; and (3) The Ethical and Political-Economic Implications of Cellular Agriculture in Southern Africa (Chiles, Sharma, Costello, Ransom).
