A Foodathon is not just an online event, it’s a journey.
A journey where you will team up with African schoolchildren and work to solve one of the most pressing challenges of our time: sustainability in the agricultural sector.
Imagine – you develop a practical solution that can effectively increase the sustainability of agriculture, making a real difference in food security and nutrition. This is your chance to be a change maker!
