Webinar, Zoom
Are you interested in collaborating across disciplines to improve global food security? Would you like to interact with SLU researchers from other disciplines? Welcome to our first network meeting within the Forum for Interdisciplinary Research Related to Global Livestock Systems!
SLU researchers have expressed a strong demand for meeting across disciplines to explore problems and find new pathways to address the global challenges. In response to this request we are now launching a new meeting arena to promote and enhance interdisciplinary research and networks on global livestock systems at SLU. The theme of the first meeting is “How can we work across disciplines to improve global food security”?
