Seven billion people currently live on Earth, and the distribution of resources could not be more unequal. While s ome allow themselves to throw away food, others must survive with very litt le. While some suffer from malnutrition, others struggle with obesity. No m atter where one looks, balance is nowhere to be found. Yet, it takes balanc e to live a truly healthy life – in rich and poor nations alike. With nine billion mouths to feed by 2050, this balance is even more essential: Agricu lture and livestock farmers need to increase their yield by 60 percent and simultaneously preserve the diversity of species, protect water, soil and f orest resources for generations to come. How can this possibly be accomplis hed?
Discuss with us and 500 decision makers from politics, industry, diplomacy, NGOs as well as science and academia the most burning issues of global food production and distribution at the Tagesspiegel World Food Con vention in Berlin on 22 June 2017:
Will agriculture become mo re ecological or more efficient? Will it define its markets globally or loc ally? How will it deal with new breeding methods and technologies? Where mu st the state intervene? Must we give up meat? From where will the feed of t he farm animals come? Will we need to raise the price of food in the first world to increase its value?
The conference will be held in English. Simultaneous interpretation into German will be pr ovided.
Participation is open for all, but places are limite d.
