Farming at the Edge: Producing Food Under Extreme Constraints
CASE STUDIES
This session focuses on how food production holds up under three very different kinds of extreme pressure - active war in Ukraine, chronic dryland food insecurity in Sub-Saharan Africa, and top-down food-system transformation in the Gulf. These lightning talks look at what breaks first, what adaptations have worked, and whether those lessons carry over between regions.
