About the event
Our world is changing—can we change with it? The pandemic has shown the fragility of food systems and how their breakdown impacts health, economies, and the environment. Rethinking food systems is a shared responsibility that requires bold cooperation, commitments, and action from the public and private sectors. Game-changing innovations and high-impact solutions have the potential to radically transform the food system into a more sustainable, inclusive, nutritious and resilient one. How can new research, technologies, and innovations be leveraged? What are the impacts for people, the planet, and prosperity?
Speakers
Claudia Sadoff, CGIAR Executive Management Team Convener and Managing Director, Research Delivery and Impact, will deliver the Spotlight talk on research and innovation strategy.
