<title>4th International Conference on Global Food Security &quot;Achieving local and global food security: at what costs?&quot; - Date: 16-06-2020 to 19-06-2020 - Location: Le Corum, Montpellier, France</title>
<author></author>
<link>http://www.globalfoodsecurityconference.com</link>
<pubDate>Tue, 04 Jun 2019 14:30:58 +0100</pubDate>
<description> The 4th International Conference on Global Food Security addresses the topic of food security at all spatial levels from local to global, and from an interdisciplinary and systemic food systems perspective. It aims to better understand environmental, nutritional, agricultural, demographic, socio-economic, political, technological and institutional drivers, costs and outcomes of current and future food security. Interactions with contextual factors including climate change, urbanisation, greening the economy and data-driven technologies will be central. 
The conference addresses the triple burden of malnutrition: hunger, micronutrient deficiencies and obesity. It explores the state-of-the-art of interdisciplinary insight, addresses the trade-offs that occur - and synergies that can be sought -in transforming food systems. These are aimed at reconciling the competing environmental, economic or social objectives and outcomes towards achieving the Sustainable Development Goals at different levels across spatial and temporal scales.

Contributions which bridge themes or scales, foster interdisciplinarity and integration or address interactions between science and non-academic stakeholders (civil society, private sector and policy makers) are particularly welcome. 
Submit abstracts by 20 September 2019.
Congress organized by Elsevier, I-Site MUSE, Wageningen University with the partnership of Agropolis International.</description>

<title>1st meeting of IPBES expert group for the assessment of the sustainable use of wild species - Date: 03-12-2018 to 07-12-2018 - Location: Agropolis International, Montpellier</title>

<description> The Intergovernmental Platform on Biodiversity and Ecosystem Services (IPBES) is an independent body in charge of the assessment of the status and trends of biodiversity in the world, with the aim to inform decision and policy-making for its conservation and sustainable use. It has a role fairly similar to what IPCC does on climate change. An international expert group newly nominated will work on the issue of the sustainable use of wild species in the next three years. The French Foundation for Research on Biodiversity (FRB) and IPBES organise their first meeting in Agropolis International . The work of the group is confidential. It will aim to develop a common understanding of the topic and build a zero order draft of the assessment report, due 2021.
