Interdisciplinary approaches to food security and climate change

In this episode of the THE Connect podcast, produced in partnership with Queen’s University Belfast, host Ashton Wenborn speaks with Aedín Cassidy, chair in nutrition and preventive medicine and director of interdisciplinary research at the Institute for Global Food Security, and Mark Emmerson, professor of biodiversity.

Queen’s University Belfast has been awarded £60 million of joint funding to establish two collaborative, cross-institutional co-centres: the Co-Centre for Sustainable and Resilient Food Systems and the Climate+ Co-Centre. Cassidy and Emmerson discuss how the co-centres will tackle the grand challenges of food sustainability and climate change, looking at why an interdisciplinary approach is so valuable.
