Event Description

 

This year's Norman E. Borlaug International Symposium, known informally as the "Borlaug Dialogue," will be held this year as an online-only event, with the theme "Breaking New Ground: Building Resilience Today for Improved Global Food Systems Tomorrow."  This year's event will feature a week of half-day sessions in a virtual setting. Through a series of live and on-demand components, registrants will hear from leaders and champions, take deep dives into key interdisciplinary topics, and interact with new and familiar partners and colleagues.  There will be three types of live sessions each day: a panel discussion, a roundtable session and a workshop. Participants will connect through a discussion board feature. This year, the students of the Global Youth Institute will participate directly in presentations and discussions on the key topics: Climate Change, Equity & Access, Nutrition, and Finance & Investment in the context of resilience.
