World Youth Gather to Talk Food

By Amanda Brodhagen, Farms.com

Youth have been given an exciting yet daunting task; finding a solution to feed a growing world population. This week, 120 young people from around the globe will gather in Calgary to tackle just that.

The Youth Ag Summit, dubbed Feeding a Hungry Planet is one of 4-H Canada’s 100th Anniversary events. Youth aged 18 to 25 from about two dozen countries around the world will be represented. Delegates will discuss topics such as food waste, climate change, population growth, urbanization, government policies, and trade.

Delegates were selected based on essay and video submissions which addressed leading causes of food insecurity and discussed how agriculture could play a pivotal role in addressing food insecurity.
