Dr. Barkin's award recognizes his work 0n Food Sovereignty, which challenges current approaches to alleviating poverty (which emphasize publicly administered social welfare programs) by focusing on the direct action of communities to organize themselves to satisfy their own basic food needs and those of their region with self-help development strategies.
