Women Scientists from Global South on Food Security (Part 3)
from Feed: a food systems podcast
500 scientists from 60 countries gathered at the 5th Global Food Security Conference in Leuven, Belgium. Instead of saying, "you had to be there," we bring you voices and reflections from the conference. Host Matthew Kessler recorded dozens of interviews, asking experts what key messages they want to deliver to those with the power to change food systems, what are the economics of food systems transformation, and which solutions to make food systems more resilient deserve more attention. This is Part 3 of a 3-part series, featuring six of the seven women scientists from the Global South awarded the 2023 OWSD-Elsevier Foundation Awards. This year's focus was on Food security. This episode was made with the support from ‘shout it out’, an instrument of the Global Minds program.For more info and resources, visit: https://tabledebates.org/podcast/episode65Help nurture food debates and take TABLE's 2024 surveyWatch the video featuring the Award Winning scientistsGuestsCarla Fabiana Crespo Melgar, Researcher at Universidad Mayor de San AndrésEugenie Kayitesi, Prof at University of PretoriaYeyinou Laura Estelle Loko, Researcher at the National University for Science, Technology and Mathematic in the Republic of BeninMunkhjargal Tserendorj, Researcher at Mongolian University of Life SciencesRenuka Attanayake, Prof at University of KelaniyaHaneen Dwaib, Chairwoman of Clinical Nutrition and Dietetics Department at Palestine Ahliya UniversityConference OrganizersElsevierKU LeuvenWageningen University and ResearchTABLEEpisode edited and produced by Matthew Kessler.
