The ILSI Research Foundation, Center for Integrated Modeling of Sustainable Agriculture and Nutrition Security (CIMSANS<http://www.ilsi.org/ResearchFoundation/CIMSANS/Pages/HomePage.aspx>) is hosting a September workshop<http://www.ilsi.org/ResearchFoundation/CIMSANS/Pages/ViewFeatureDetails.aspx?WebId=142C03A4-B5DB-4F3A-9583-1D5820C57022&ListId=7503CA3F-EBD1-474E-B50F-B803C395C658&ItemID=9> to evaluate methods for improving models that are needed to carry out a Sustainable Nutrition Security<http://www.ilsi.org/ResearchFoundation/CIMSANS/Pages/ILSI_Research_Foundation_CIMSANS_Nutrition_Security.aspx> Assessment. To support workshop discussions, several surveys intended for model developers, users or individuals interested in model outputs have been developed. These surveys gather perspectives on the most pressing needs for food system model improvements as well as what technologies, approaches and mechanisms will most effectively contribute to these improvements. The surveys will remain open until 7 September to allow time for summarizing prior to the 11-12 September event. Input from all interested individuals is welcome: * Economic Modeling Improvement Issues: https://www.surveymonkey.com/s/CIMSANSEconModelImprovement * Crop Modeling Improvement Issues: https://www.surveymonkey.com/s/CIMSANSCropModelImprovement * Joint Modeling Improvement Issues: https://www.surveymonkey.com/s/CIMSANSGeneralModelImprovement We appreciate any contributions in advance!
