Second Annual International Food Aid Showcase

June 10th, 2025

Co-hosted by the Global Food Institute (GFI) at the George Washington University, Counterpart International, and The Alliance to End Hunger, the Second Annual International Food Aid Showcase brought together professionals from the many sectors of the food systems industry to discuss the ever-changing landscape of international food assistance. GFI’s Carbonell Family Director, Stacy Dean, provided the opening remarks. The event featured panel discussions, Q&As, and a networking luncheon to facilitate these critical conversations.

At the event, GFI affiliate faculty members Caitlin Grady, Erica Gralla, and Maryam Z. Deloffre hosted an interactive booth to gather feedback on their multi-unit rapid response research project.

The team is examining both the value of international food aid and the potential impacts of eliminating it with a data collection tool set to launch in the future to inform more effective global food aid policy.
