The tone of the conference enraged many as developed nations, who had in 2009 promised to provide over $100 billion annually, had by 2019 only allotted roughly $20 billion. One of the dominant arguments is that the narrative of \u201cshared responsibilities\u201d is essentially a status-quo maintaining tool; developed nations have the opportunity to address poor and unsustainable environmental habits by building their economic capacities and capabilities, but that same opportunity is denied to those in the developing world, who do not possess the capacity to use greener and more sustainable tools to build their own economies. The developing world therefore is practically stuck and the world domination of the developed nations will be perpetuated and reproduced, resulting in\u00a0 chronic dependency.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_23897\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-23897\" style=\"width: 640px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-23897 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/research.reading.ac.uk\/research-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/72\/2022\/04\/Bridging-Worlds-1-e1649438816565.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"640\" height=\"426\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-23897\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Dr Tahani Sileet, Deputy Minister and Head of External Partnership at the Egyptian Ministry of Water Resources and Irrigation, and Simon Mortimer, Head of School of Agriculture, Policy and Development, University of Reading.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p><!--more--><\/p>\n<p>The <em>Bridging Worlds: Sustainable Agriculture Conference, <\/em>sponsored by Corteva-Agriscience, took place on the 31st March and 1st\u00a0April 2022 to consider how developing countries are taking these matters into their own hands and what sustainable actions they are adopting themselves to combat climate change and build back better.

The keynote address by Deputy Minister and Head of External Partnership at the Egyptian Ministry of Water Resources and Irrigation, Dr Tahani Sileet, opened our eyes to the problematic and worrisome future of freshwater resources and the urgency of climate action. Dr Sileet\u2019s address highlighted the interconnectedness and inseparability of protecting freshwater resources, which she suggests \u201cconnects the world metaphorically and literally\u201d. Her address intrigued our international student cohorts and online participants and many of them reported feeling \u201crepresented and heard\u201d. Her work on the Water Pavilion Agenda which will be presented at the upcoming COP27 in Sharm El Sheikh in Egypt, revealed the mitigation efforts of 11 countries in protecting and navigating the critical issue of water distribution among the Nile-Basin countries, particularly in facing the challenges of food insecurity, poverty, and eco-political hardships. One of our esteemed faculty members, Dr Richard Ellis spoke about how \u201chearing the information from a localised narrative holds a certain power and credibility; that it remains with you long after you have listened to it\u201d. Professor Ellis\u2019 remarks highlighted one of the primary objectives of the conference: to bridge the world and provide a platform for expression and empower local voices to share their lived experiences and enlighten the listeners about it.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_23899\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-23899\" style=\"width: 640px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-23899 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/research.reading.ac.uk\/research-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/72\/2022\/04\/Bridging-Worlds-3-e1649438967291.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"640\" height=\"423\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-23899\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">A hybrid-approach was used for the conference.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>Our second keynote address by Ms Laura Kelly, the Director for Shaping Sustainable Markets at the International Institute for Environment and Development, complimented the address of Dr Sileet, by shedding light on the further challenges trade imposes on middle- and low-income countries. Ms Kelly\u2019s address highlighted the essentialness of think tanks and non-governmental organisations in bringing the knowledge of researchers into the world of public policy. As Ms Kelly explained, to bridge the disconnect and in the hope that world leaders would make better informed decisions about the future of sustainable markets and trade, they must rely on researchers and their evidence-based outputs. Ignoring the scientific finding of researchers is indeed detrimental to our future. As one of our Development Finance Master\u2019s students stated \u201cPolicy makers are ignorant. They make decisions that affect the most marginalised only informed by profit and greed. I learned a lot from Ms Kelly on what I can do to try and change that\u201d.<\/p>\n<p>The conference also enjoyed presentations from 14 ECRs on the different sub-disciplines and areas of expertise on the themes of \u2018Climate Change and Agriculture and Sustainable Agriculture and Development\u2019. We heard presentations from ECRs on <em>Globalization and pollinators: the consequences of pollinator losses on international food systems; Farmers\u2019 perception of food crop diversity and value in Zambia; Integrating Ecosystem Benefits in Hydroeconomic Modelling; Building Resilience: the need to document indigenous knowledge; Why are agri-food systems resistant to new directions of change?; Or why is it so hard to achieve sustainable development, inter alia<\/em>. The presentations showcased challenges from all around the world and presented case studies from Kazakhstan, Spain, China, Zambia and the UK, which enabled stimulating discussions amongst in-person attendees and online participants, particularly with regards to the new \u2018normal\u2019 of the world post-COVID.<\/p>\n<p>The discussions also inspired dialogues among participants and presenters regarding the Ukraine crisis. On the <em>Sustainable Trade: Nature, People Policy <\/em>panel, we were joined by Professor Simon Mortimer (Head of School of Agriculture, Policy and Development, University of Reading), Professor Rosalind Cornforth (Walker Institute, University of Reading), Professor Henny Osbahr (Co-Head of International Development, University of Reading), Dr Beatriz Hernandez (UNEP), and Dr Yiorgos Gadanakis (Agriculture Business Management Programme Director, University of Reading) who answered the difficult questions about the Ukraine crisis and what it means for the world food system security, the future of trade relations, with insights on the limitations the current global system suffers from and how to combat them with knowledge.<\/p>\n<p>With COP27 fast-approaching will issues of global power dynamics as a result of unbalanced climate change contributions be addressed? Will developed nations meet their financial obligations and break the cycle of dependency? Or will COP remain the same?<\/p>\n<p>To learn more about the conference and\/or gain access to the materials used by our speakers and presenters, please contact the Conference Organising Team at <a href=\"mailto:corteva2022@reading.ac.uk\">corteva2022@reading.ac.uk<\/a>.
