Presented By: Christy Hanson, PhD

Event: ECHO International Agriculture Conference 2015 (18/11/2015)

The cyclical relationship between agricultural development and human health can hinder or drive economic development.  In this presentation, Dr. Hanson will explore the impacts of poor health on agricultural productivity and yield; and the inter-connected role of food scarcity and malnutrition on early mortality and limited economic growth. Dr. Hanson will also discuss solutions that may unite the health and agricultural sectors around shared goals of human and economic development in a context of environmental sustainability.
