Focusing on strategies and solutions against food insecurity and hunger, propelled by McGill's longstanding dedication and expertise in agriculture and environment, nutrition, and food security, the Conference provides a unique forum to foster a global paradigm shift; a shift towards convergence of understanding and commitment to reduce hunger and malnutrition.

The Public Lecture kicks off the 7th McGill Conference on Global Food Security and will feature leading specialists in the field of food security.

The 6th McGill Conference on Global Food Security highlighted the fact that world food security must remain an international priority and that the current momentum for action and investment must be sustained in order to respond adequately to the protracted food crisis and the further challenges to food security. Global agricultural research and development systems must result in increased agricultural production, commercialization and income generation for small holders to improve not just lives but livelihoods.

The 6th Global Food Security Public Lecture drew over 250 participants from all fields of interest to examine the challenges of food prices and political instability. The 2014 Public Lecture promises to be as impactful.

If you wish to attend the Conference, please note that you must register for it separately.
