World Food Forum has launched its Young Scientist Group (YSG)

(09-03-2022)

The World Food Forum (WFF) has launched its Young Scientist Group (YSG). The objective of the YSG is to support and substantiate the work of the WFF, providing the necessary scientific evidence and technical knowledge to the various initiatives of the WFF and will develop an annual WFF Young Scientists report on specific policy issues of particular concern to youth, related to agri-food systems transformation.  

Leveraging on FAO areas of expertise, and by engaging partners and relevant academic networks, the Group will play a critical role in providing the WFF with the necessary science-based direction and allow for formal scientific opinions related to documents, statements, or action-oriented proposals generated by the participating youth.

 

The deadline for the call is on 15 March. Read more on the Young Scientist Group here: http://www.world-food-forum.org/youth-action/young-scientists-group/en/
