About this badge

Food prices have been rising for almost a decade, nearly one billion people in the world are hungry, and one billion people lack access to safe water supplies. Amidst these current-day realities, how can food and water security be improved? Examine international and local food, water, and sanitation policies. Analyze the differing scenarios in developed and developing countries, as well as the roles of international organizations, sovereign governments, and civil society in ensuring food and water security through policy creation and implementation. Case studies include agricultural subsidies in the United States; domestic food policies in the US, Latin America, and Africa; hydraulic fracturing in the US; the land grab in Africa; and export bans in Asia.
