Universidad Privada Boliviana & South-American Hub
Are proud to host our 2nd Global Food, Energy and Water Summit taking place October 13th-19th from 9AM-5PM at the Universidad Privada Boliviana in La Paz city in Bolivia.
The ongoing goal of Global FEW summit is to provide opportunities for participants to come together, identify existing gaps in the field, pursue new collaborations, and continue working toward effective and permanent solutions to some of today’s most challenging and prevalent food, energy and water issues across the world. We believe this goal can be just as effectively realized through our new digital mediums.
As in previous summit, we will showcase member research through presentations, our panel discussion and lots of informal social networking events to catalyze new collaborations!
