The Global Bioeconomy Alliance is pleased to host the second webinar in its series dedicated to fostering international dialogue and collaboration on sustainable and inclusive bioeconomy development.
The webinar will open with a welcome address by Cristina Chuck (Tecnológico de Monterrey), who will also provide an update on the upcoming Global Bioeconomy Alliance Conference. The session will then feature expert contributions from leading researchers working at the intersection of food systems, agriculture, and climate resilience.
As nations worldwide seek to build sustainable bioeconomies, ensuring food security, supporting rural livelihoods, and strengthening resilience to climate change have become critical priorities. This webinar brings together perspectives from biotechnology, agricultural economics, and evolutionary systems biology to explore how research and innovation can contribute to more sustainable and resilient agricultural systems.
Participants will gain insights into the potential of single-cell protein production from agricultural by-products, the socioeconomic impacts of agricultural systems and policies, and the effects of climate change on crop performance and food production. Together, these perspectives highlight the opportunities and challenges involved in transforming agriculture to support a sustainable bioeconomy.
