Description
Not only are food systems complex, but each is also unique to the geography and culture it is supposed to nourish.
Building Healthy, Nutritious and Affordable Food Systems for Rwanda through Innovations is a two-hour workshop that looks to discover the intricacies and needs to build effective and efficient food systems in Rwanda. We aspire to develop a Food Systems Innovation Hub that will support a positive food system transformation. As a UN Food Systems Summit Independent Dialogue, the ideas and information from this workshop will contribute to the upcoming Summit and further develop the Food Systems Innovation Hub concept in Rwanda.
Join us for an engaging event featuring:
- Presentations by Anna Lartey (University of Ghana), Dr Ndabamenye Telesphore (Technical Advisor, Ministry of Agriculture and Animal Resources – Rwanda), and Breda Gavin-Smith (Sight and Life).
- A dynamic conversation led by Kalpana Beesabathuni (Sight and Life) with Namukolo Covic (IFPRI) and more on the importance of innovating affordable, tasty, nutritious foods and how the Food Systems Innovation Hub could support entrepreneurs.
- Simon Winter (Syngenta Foundation for Sustainable Agriculture) and Maya Stewart (Lenzie Milling Company) will moderate insightful breakout sessions on entrepreneurship and innovation, creating demand for nutritious foods, food safety, sustainable proteins, advocacy and policy, and more.
