IFPRI is participating in The Norman E. Borlaug International Symposium.

Each year, the Dialogue brings together over 1,200 people from more than 65 countries to address cutting-edge issues related to global food security and nutrition. Through the Borlaug Dialogue, the World Food Prize Foundation helps build alliances in the struggle against world hunger and malnutrition.

The theme for the 2019 Symposium, “Pax Agricultura: Peace Through Agriculture,” will address the increasingly intersectional issues of food security, conflict and development. With topics ranging from religion, diplomacy, climate, scientific innovation, and corporate leadership, this year’s Dialogue will serve as an opportunity to take stock of the current state of global agriculture and food security.
