The theme for the 2023 World food day is about the connection between water and food. An essential connection especially considering that the vast majority of freshwater resources are used for agriculture. We shall discuss with Sera Young (Northwestern University), Kyle Davis (University of Delaware) and Pablo Gaitán-Rossi (Universidad Iberoamericana) about how we can assess and monitor water and food insecurities, and we what are the paths that can be taken to improve access to these essential resources.
