The inaugural Youth Ag-Summit in Canada in 2013 showed the potential of bringing together young leaders to discuss solutions to achieve global food security. Together with agricultural youth organisations from around the world, we decided to take on this challenge. Partnering with the Future Farmers Network (FFN), the 2015 Youth Ag-Summit takes place in Canberra, Australia from August 24-28. One hundred young leaders and 35 mentors from 33 countries come together to collaborate, share perspectives and find answers to the question "How do we feed a hungry planet?"
