520 'The National Research Council's Science and Technology
for Sustainability Program hosted two workshops in 2011
addressing the sustainability challenges associated with
food security for all. The first workshop, Measuring Food
Insecurity and Assessing the Sustainability of Global Food
Systems, explored the availability and quality of commonly
used indicators for food security and malnutrition;
poverty; and natural resources and agricultural
productivity. It was organized around the three broad
dimensions of sustainable food security: (1) availability,
(2) access, and (3) utilization. The workshop reviewed the
existing data to encourage action and identify knowledge
gaps. The second workshop, Exploring Sustainable Solutions
for Increasing Global Food Supplies, focused specifically
on assuring the availability of adequate food supplies.
How can food production be increased to meet the needs of
a population expected to reach over 9 billion by 2050?
Workshop objectives included identifying the major
challenges and opportunities associated with achieving
sustainable food security and identifying needed policy,
science, and governance interventions. Workshop
participants discussed long term natural resource
constraints, specifically water, land and forests, soils,
biodiversity and fisheries. They also examined the role of
knowledge, technology, modern production practices, and
infrastructure in supporting expanded agricultural
production and the significant risks to future
productivity posed by climate change. This is a report of
two workshops.'--Publisher's description.
