Renowned chef and humanitarian José Andrés is partnering with Washington D.C.'s George Washington University to find solutions to major problems in the global food system.
Announced Tuesday, the Global Food Institute will fund research addressing issues of food insecurity, health, and climate change.
In a release, Andrés said the food system is “experiencing a crisis,” but noted food has the power to “rebuild lives and communities, heal both people and the planet and create hope for the future.”
