Join us for an engaging conversation and a dynamic breakout session about what stands in the way of achieving a zero hunger world - all from the perspective of practitioners in regions most affected by hunger. Why are "aggies" calling upon the lawyers, techies, engineers and communications experts to please stand up? Should fighting corruption be the focus of the fight for food access? Is the private sector viewed as valuable or dangerous by those on the frontlines of fighting hunger? We look forward to discussing what is really at stake to make a real impact in ending hunger and malnutrition in our lifetime.
