GCFSI is an inaugural USAID Development Lab partnered with Michigan State University. We're seeking innovative solutions to global food system problems.
The Global Center for Food Systems Innovation (GCFSI) Development Lab led by Michigan State University will contribute to sustainable food production and consumption over the next 10-15 years. The Development Lab will develop a sophisticated understanding of mega-trends affecting global food systems: population growth, rapid urbanization, climate change, pressures on land, and skills gaps in the food system workforce. This knowledge base will be used to inform USAID’s programs aimed at developing and scaling locally-appropriate solutions to global hunger and health.
