World Food Prize Foundation: DialogueNEXT Mexico

July 10 - July 11

The world population is projected to exceed 10 billion by 2100, posing a significant challenge to ensuring food security without depleting natural resources. To address this, the World Food Prize Foundation, in partnership with CIMMYT, will host DialogueNEXT on 10 – 11 July 2024, in Texcoco, Mexico. This event, which coincides with World Population Day, pays tribute to the legacy of Norman Borlaug while discussing strategies for global food security.

Under the theme, Seeds of Strength: Nurturing Farmer Resilience, DialogueNEXT will bring together local and international food systems stakeholders. Discussions will focus on climate change mitigation, sustainable food production, and agricultural development strategies, aiming to outline a coordinated approach that can deliver the transformative impact of the Green Revolution for today’s smallholder farmers.
