The Hungry City: Singapore’s Food History in Global Perspective Workshop (27-28 May 2021) was organised by Yale-NUS College and held in conjunction with the Singapore Heritage Festival 2021.

The two-day session brought together a diverse group of Singapore-based faculty, intellectuals, cultural workers, and history students to reflect on food’s multi-layered, omnipresent nature in old Singapore. The speakers drew on a broad span of approaches to deepen our understanding of traditional food. This included examining the culinary, social, oral, environmental, political, and economic history, as well as the history of science, technology, and medicine behind food.
