The 4th International Conference on Global Food Security addresses the topic of food security at all spatial levels from local to global, and from an interdisciplinary and systemic food systems perspective. It aims to better understand environmental, nutritional, agricultural, demographic, socio-economic, political, technological, and institutional drivers, costs, and outcomes of current and future food security.
Interactions with contextual factors including climate change, urbanisation, greening the economy, and data-driven technologies will be central. The conference addresses the triple burden of malnutrition: hunger, micronutrient deficiencies, and obesity. It explores the state-of-the-art of interdisciplinary insight, addresses the trade-offs that occur – and synergies that can be sought –in transforming food systems. These are aimed at reconciling the competing environmental, economic, or social objectives and outcomes towards achieving the Sustainable Development Goals at different levels across spatial and temporal scales.
