Feeding the world, the smart way
Presented by the Australian Academy of Technological Sciences and Engineering (ATSE)

Join us in this thought-provoking talk as Fiona Simson brings a uniquely powerful perspective shaped by her dual roles on the global and national stages.

As Vice President of the World Farmers’ Organisation, Fiona will offer a worldview on the critical challenges and interconnected pressures of feeding a growing global population amid climate volatility, resource constraints and geopolitical shifts. Drawing on the latest science, she’ll explore the global dynamics of food insecurity, sustainability and farmer resilience.

Fiona will connect these global challenges with homegrown solutions, highlighting Australia’s cutting-edge AgTech and the work of the Future Food Systems CRC. From urban farming innovations to traceable supply chains and data-driven decision-making on-farm, she’ll showcase how Australia is not only adapting to change but helping to shape the future of food.

This session will inspire and challenge you to think about how local innovation, powered by collaboration and science and engineering, can contribute to global food security—and why Australia has a vital role to play in “doing our bit” to feed the world.
