In honor of #EarthMonth, we're opening up an expert session to the campus community! Join us today at 3pm to hear about agrivoltaics from @JacksSolar! https://t.co/OPggHcWGyh

“Everyone, including youth, are already active participants in our global food systems. Food is an essential humanitarian right, & those who are food insecure in your community shouldn't have to search for these next meals ” -Nick Blumenthal (Borlaug-Ruan International Intern)
“Because agriculture is so much more than just farming & everyone is affected by it, if we want to achieve global food security then we need to take matters into our own hands & fight for it.” -Huda Ibrahim (CIP Borlaug-Ruan International Intern) #YouthLeadership#DigitalDialogue
“When we empower young people, we are investing in the future. We are fostering a generation that is not just able to understand the importance of food security, but will be able to create the solutions.” -Dennis Vlegals (Council of Advisors Member) #EndHunger#DigitalDialogue
From understanding our planet's intricate ecosystems to developing innovative solutions, science guides us toward a greener future. 💚 Today we celebrate the incredible power of youth in driving both sustainability and science forward ✨
