IFPRI is partnering with The Chicago Council on Global Affairs for the 2019 symposium under the theme,  “From Scarcity to Security: Managing Water for a Nutritious Food Future”.

By 2050, over one half of the world’s population could be at risk due to stress on water resources. How will we grow an adequate quantity—and quality—of food to feed and nourish a rapidly growing, urbanizing world in the face of increasing water insecurity?
