As global populations continue to grow and put pressure on the earth’s finite resources, global food systems must adapt. In our recent webinar, “The Latest Innovations in Global Crop Mapping,” experts from International Food Policy Research Institute (IFPRI), Bezos Earth Fund, Land & Carbon Lab and more discussed the importance of transforming global food systems and the role that geospatial monitoring can play in this.

Economist, Researcher, and Lecturer | Enthusiastic About Economic Analysis and Committed to Engaging, Insightful Research
🌟Exciting News: Unveiling Our Latest Research Breakthrough! 🌟 I am overjoyed to share the publication of our newest research paper, "Examining the Confluence of Climate Change and Conflicts on Agricultural and Livestock Exports in Somalia," in the prestigious journal *Environmental Research Communications*! 🎉📚 This groundbreaking study dives deep into the intricate relationship between climate change and conflicts, and how these forces shape Somalia's agricultural and livestock exports from 1985 to 2017. Using cutting-edge econometric techniques like cointegration analysis and the ARDL approach, we have unveiled fascinating insights that highlight the dynamic interplay of environmental and socio-political factors. Discover the full paper and immerse yourself in our findings here: (https://lnkd.in/djaqVyFf). Let's advance the conversation on sustainable development and resilient agricultural systems together! 🌍🌾 #ResearchRevolution #ClimateImpact #AgriculturalInnovation #SomaliaStudy #NewPublication #EnvironmentalInsights #SustainableFuture

One question is whether these kind of JRC collaborations can eventually form a multi-functional scientific network along the lines that Spinelli would have envisaged, or whether they remain more ad hoc and focused on specific projects/topics

Summer insights: governing the food system of the future 🧑🌾🏛️ Our food system faces major challenges. Climate goals, biodiversity, affordability: all these need to be addressed to ensure a robust food system. The question remaining is: how, and who will bring these aspects together? Associate professor Jeroen Candel (Public Administration and Policy Group @WUR) analyzes these questions of food governance. Through studying European policies such as Farm to Fork, he advances theories on policy integration, and delivers insights that help policy makers working on agriculture. Watch the video below to learn more about Candel's work 🔽
