Global food systems are facing unprecedented pressures. Patterns of food production, processing, transport and consumption are increasingly fragile and vulnerable, and are exacerbating the prevalence of hunger on a global scale. Developing resilient food systems and safeguarding food security have never been more critical in our warming world. Columbia Climate School’s Jessica Fanzo and Michael Puma will provide key insights into how policy, innovation, and global collaboration can protect and enhance food security. Join us as these experts unpack the complexities of food system resilience and present actionable strategies to help shape a more secure and sustainable future.
