Informing Food System Transformation with Foresight: Nelson Illescas, Fundación INAI, Argentina
In April 2024, the CGIAR Initiative on Foresight and the Institute for Integrated Development Studies (IIDS, Nepal) held the Foresight Partnership Forum and Training in Kathmandu, Nepal. The four-day event brought together key Initiative partners from across Asia, Africa, and Latin America to share insights on the multifaceted challenges affecting food, land, and water systems and strengthen local foresight and policy modeling capacity.
During the event, we interviewed the Foresight Initiative partners from Argentina, Brazil, China, India, Indonesia, and South Africa and asked them to answer two questions: “Why did you join the Foresight Initiative and how is this partnership helping you in addressing the food systems issues in your countries?” and “How is the use of Foresight models helping you in advancing/informing strategies in your country?”
In this episode, we spoke with Nelson Illescas, Director (from 2017-2024), Fundación INAI, Argentina (http://inai.org.ar/)
