Demonstrating how we build a sustainable and healthy future for people and the planet

Our ability to feed the world in a way that protects people’s health without harming the planet is under severe threat. Climate change is wreaking havoc on the world’s food, land, and water, causing record levels of hunger and malnutrition. At the same time, our approach to growing, processing, trading, and consuming food is contributing to the problem. Without urgent action to transform our agriculture and food systems, millions more lives and livelihoods will be lost on an increasingly devastated planet.

Recognizing the urgency of these crises, CGIAR is convening the world’s leading scientists and thinkers at the intersection of agriculture and climate for its inaugural Science Week. The gathering will inspire action and investment in sustainable food systems that nourish both people and planet.

Drawing on CGIAR science and partnerships from around the world, the inaugural CGIAR Science Week will bring together the community working for a food, nutrition and climate secure future to:

  • co-create a roadmap for food, land and water systems transformation
  • forge partnerships for action
  • build the case for investment
  • inspire change.

This July, we invite you to:

  • connect with experts from around the world
  • engage with visionary leaders
  • experience game-changing innovations.

We look forward to seeing you at this exciting event.
