In support of involving next-generation leaders in the UN Food System Summit, “the Food Systems Innovation Challenge” was organized to surface innovative and cutting edge ideas.
In this challenge, 20 student teams from Universities from all over the world (Brazil, South Africa, the United States, The Netherlands, India, Czech Republic, Uganda, Belgium, and China), compete by presenting innovative, practical, and outstanding ideas on Food System Transformations. The final ideas of the teams are presented on this page, in the form of video pitches.
