Welcome to The Power of Food, GFI’s new community newsletter! Each month, we’ll share the latest news, ideas, and inspiration from our vibrant food systems community.
"Across the globe, food is shaping some of the biggest questions of our time. Questions like: can we feed a growing population while also reducing agriculture’s contribution to climate change? Can we ensure that the food systems of the future prioritize access to nutritious affordable food for everyone?
These are questions I’ve grappled with throughout my career, from my decades in the nonprofit sector to most recently leading the federal food and nutrition programs at the USDA. Yet, they have never felt more urgent than they do today. Food systems are under immense strain, and we need nothing short of big, bold solutions to fight hunger, improve health, and protect our planet."
