Students launch new hub to advocate for global food security

Open to students in any field of study, the aim of the Nexus is to raise awareness about the topic of food security, while also giving its members a place to come together and learn from one another. As its name suggests, the Nexus will work closely with the Margaret A. Gilliam Institute for Global Food Security (IGFS) at McGill to organize events, educational campaigns, and other activities that support the institute’s work. This close collaboration will also allow the institute to connect Nexus students with its local and global partners, including United Nations agencies such as the Food and Agriculture Organization, the International Fund for Agricultural Development, and the World Food Programme, for internships and job opportunities.
