Food Tank speaks with Sonja Vermeulen of CCAFS about addressing climate change and improving food security through agriculture.

CGIAR Climate's insight:
Food Tank recently had the opportunity to speak with Sonja Vermeulen, the Head of Research at the Consultative Group on International Agriculture Research’s (CGIAR) program on Climate Change, Agriculture, and Food Security (CCAFS). CCAFS is a research institution that brings together the world’s best researchers to address the most important interactions between climate change and agriculture. Speaking with us from London, Vermeulen gave us a look at the work CCAFS is doing to address climate change and improve food security through agriculture. She also highlighted a couple of exciting developments to come in 2014 and gave us her prediction for the next great challenge to food security.
