World Impact Zone - Boardroom Live # 12 | Food Security Track: From Food Aid to Building Resilient Global Food Systems

​Private, invitation-only dialogue on long-term resilience and system-building in fragile contexts.

​About the Session

​This closed-door Boardroom Live convenes a select circle of leaders to address one of humanity’s most urgent challenges — how to move beyond short-term food aid toward resilient, self-sustaining global food systems.

​The dialogue will explore practical frameworks that replace aid dependency with community agency, shifting from reactive assistance to proactive resilience. We’ll examine how global food systems can evolve from fragmented emergency responses to interconnected, data-driven networks capable of withstanding conflict, climate stress, and economic volatility.

​Conversations will span innovations across agriculture, nutrition, logistics, technology, and policy — highlighting how local actors, governments, investors, and NGOs can collaborate to design sustainable ecosystems that ensure reliable access to food, strengthen supply chains, and empower vulnerable regions.

​Expect a candid exchange of insights, hard questions, and actionable strategies — within a trusted, off-the-record environment.
