SDG 2 - Zero hunger
Hunger is the leading cause of death worldwide. Our planet provides tremendous resources, but unequal access and inefficiency leave millions malnourished. By promoting sustainable agriculture with modern technologies and fair distribution, we can support the global population and ensure no one suffers from hunger again.
We’re tackling hunger through a range of community initiatives on and off campus. Our work with Farm Urban is driving high-tech and sustainable food production, and in Southeast Asia, we are working to develop nature-based solutions to promote food security and agricultural management strategies.
