Global Table Fellow: Chef Selassie Atadika

In collaboration with the Schwarzman Center and Yale Hospitality, the MacMillan Center is leading a program called Global Table, which aims to illuminate the connections between sustainability, health, culture, and community. It centers around bringing culinary thought-leaders from around the world to campus. While in residence, each visitor will train staff, connect with students and researchers, and offer remarks over a meal of their own devising.

Our inaugural Global Table Fellow is Chef Selassie Atadika, a Ghanaian culinarian, educator, and food systems advocate who strives to demystify African cuisines and the value they offer to the global community. Atadika will be in residence at Yale during the week of September 30, 2024. Her menu will be featured in one of the Commons dining stations starting in November.
