Brazilian and Danish contribution to the challenge of sustainable food supply

The Embassy of Brazil in Denmark, with institutional support from Food Nation, the Danish Agricultural & Food Council, and DAKOFO, has the pleasure to invite you to attend the conference.

Counting on Brazilian experts that will be brought in especially for this occasion as well as their Danish counterparts from agribusiness, academia, environmental non-governmental organizations, trade, finance and industry, this conference is a unique opportunity to not only learn more about what is being achieved in sustainable agriculture, both in temperate and tropical climates, but also to meet and network with the people directly involved.
