In its July Newsletter, the Food & Business Knowledge Platform (F&BKP) highlights the Food & Nutrition Security Excellence Programme, an opportunity for students to work on real-life cases of Dutch Embassies in Burundi and Kenya. Furthermore reports of various knowledge activities are presented.

The Platform informs on: two Community of Practice meetings, one on Food systems and one on Food security and stability; the launch of the 2019 IFPRI and EAT-Lancet reports on agriculture, food and nutrition; and a panel discussion on the organic movement contributing to SDG2.
