Access to global initiative to secure future planetary food supplies added to PMWL in new Solving Global Problems section
5 February 2018 – Davos, Switzerland and Dallas, TX, USA – Access to a new resource has been added to the PM World Library related to solving global problems. The resource is called “Shaping the Future of Food Security and Agriculture” and is a system initiative of the World Economic Forum.
According to the World Economic Forum, by 2050 a global population of 9.8 billion will demand 70% more food than is consumed today. Feeding this expanded population nutritiously and sustainably will require substantial improvements to the global food system – one that provides livelihoods for farmers as well as nutritious products for consumers. The mission of the World Economic Forum’s System Initiative on Shaping the Future of Food Security and Agriculture is to build inclusive, sustainable, efficient and nutritious food systems through leadership-driven, market-based action and collaboration, informed by insights and innovation, in alignment with the Sustainable Development Goals. Information about related programs and projects around the world is provided on their website.
To access this resource, go to https://pmworldlibrary.net/solving-global-problems/, select “Reducing Famine and Hunger”, scroll down to Global Initiatives and Programs. Free access to all.
