Wat?
The Forum for the Future of Agriculture returns to Brussels on Tuesday March 16th 2010 to address the politics and economics of world food supply and the interplay with climate change. Once again, FFA has attracted an extremely high calibre of speakers to address this subject including Professor Jagdish Bhagwati, the Special Adviser to the United Nations on Globalization and an external adviser to the World Trade Organisation, who will make the keynote address.
We are also delighted to be joined by Dr. Joseph Glauber, the Chief Economist at the US Department of Agriculture; Dr. Carey Fowler, the Executive Director of the Global Crop Diversity Trust; H.E. Brave Ndisale, Ambassador of Malawi to the European Union; and Sir Crispin Tickell, a former Adviser to British Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher and one of the first to warn of the dangers posed by climate change.
Putting the questions to these and our other speakers will be the renowned international journalist, Steven Sackur, presenter of BBC’s HardTalk programme, whilst the Forum itself will be chaired by the former EU Agriculture Commissioner, Franz Fischler.
