SDG Lounge - Hungry for change

No one entity or institution can accomplish this age-old goal of ensuring that the most basic of needs is met and available to all. Only by every sector working together can we achieve SDG 2 – zero hunger – and contribute to SDG 1 – overcoming poverty. 

The Science and Art of Baking for the Food-Sensitive Masses

There is no question that global efforts to feed the hungry must be stepped up. But, can those outside of well-stocked cities expect or demand food that is both delicious and takes their food sensitivities and allergies into account?

 Join us for a high-level discussion focused on the multistakeholder collaborations that lift the agenda of food security followed by a conversation about the knowledge and resources required to democratize food at scale.
