Retos de la Agricultura y la Alimentación en el Siglo XXI (edX)

Reflexionaremos sobre agricultura y alimentación en un planeta que tiene que alimentar a una población creciente con recursos limitados. El planeta se enfrenta al reto de alimentar a una población creciente en un escenario de limitación de recursos, mercados agroalimentarios imperfectos, crisis de alimentos, y población rural vulnerable. El curso invita a una reflexión sobre las alternativas de la agricultura y la alimentación, vistas como solución a los desafíos socio-económicos y ambientales, con énfasis en el papel de la agricultura familiar y en modos de producción sostenibles, en el marco de cadenas de valor más equilibradas.
