The World Food Prize, 17-19 October, takes place at their headquarters in Des Moines, Iowa. This prestigious event, including the World Food Prize Borlaug Dialogue and the World Food Prize Laureate Award Presentation, is a unique opportunity to showcase how CGIAR science is tackling humanity’s greatest challenges and to create more sustainable food systems.
CGIAR will have a strong presence at the World Food Prize this year to celebrate our shared history and to showcase the future of CGIAR research in these five transformative areas: nutrition, genomics, economics, information and the environment.
In recognition of this year’s theme Rise to the Challenge, CGIAR will participate in several events throughout the week.
