Challenge 2050 Project Summary
Increasing and ever-changing demands are being placed on agricultural and environmental systems worldwide. Accounting for agricultural production, energy consumption, environmental impact, and several other variables will be key, if we aspire to sustain the health and well-being of more than 9.725 billion people by 2050. To address these problems, we will need leaders and complex adaptive problem solvers who can think broadly and boldly. This is the charge of the Challenge 2050 Project, to develop human capacity to meet the needs of the growing population by the year 2050.
