Is Global Food Security a Solvable Puzzle? (Part 1)

Feed: a food systems podcast

500 scientists from 60 countries gathered at the 5th Global Food Security Conference in Leuven, Belgium. Instead of saying, "you had to be there," we bring you voices and reflections from the conference. Host Matthew Kessler recorded dozens of interviews, asking experts what key messages they want to deliver to those with the power to change food systems, what are the economics of food systems transformation, and which solutions to make food systems more resilient deserve more attention.
This is Part 1 of a 3-part series, made with the support from ‘shout it out’, an instrument of the Global Minds program.
