J-WAFS at 10: Celebrating a decade of innovation

Synopsis

Community Jameel and the MIT Abdul Latif Jameel Water and Food Systems Lab (J-WAFS) co-host a reception to celebrate J-WAFS' 10-year anniversary and showcase J-WAFS flagship online platform, the Jameel Index for Food Trade and Vulnerability.

The Jameel Index measures and assesses countries' dependence on global food trade and imports, and how regional-scale threats might affect the ability to trade food goods across diverse geographic regions.

The event hosts a discussion with members of the Jameel Index advisory committee Joel Bourne and Tracy McVeigh and a preview of George Steinmetz's upcoming book, 'Feed the planet', a photographic journey of how global food systems are changing our planet.
