Food systems science and policy domains have often been siloed in academia.
Bridging the gap between scientists and policy experts is needed in order
to effectively — and quickly — reduce the carbon footprint of food systems,
while also advancing global food security. This event aims to bring
together leading experts from the food systems science and policy research
communities. The event will help establish the nascent food program at the
Columbia University Climate School, and ensure that the “Fourth Purpose” of
the university is enshrined in the DNA of its food systems work.
