Landesa President and CEO Chris Jochnick will be speaking on a panel at the Innovation Forum’s Future of Food conference in Chicago on May 22-23, 2019. The conference will bring together senior food and beverage professionals to discuss the future of food production, consumption and demand; as well as identifying the main areas of opportunity and innovation within the industry.

Through distinct tracks, the conference will delve into four key themes:
Consumers: Communicate your work effectively and keep up with changing consumer demands
Famers: Build resilience down the supply chain and ensure sustainable practices at farm-level
Climate: Reduce GHG emissions and encourage climate-smart agriculture
Land: Implement sustainable agriculture techniques across your supply chain

Climate Change Adversities and Gender Inequality in Bangladesh
This program reflection from the Coastal Livelihoods and Mangroves Project explores how gender norms shape women’s and girls’ experiences of climate change in Bangladesh’s coastal communities. Drawing on fieldwork in Satkhira and Khulna districts, Shushilan's Snigdha Ghosh highlights how unequal access to forest resources and mobility restrictions limit women’s participation in climate resilience efforts—reinforcing vulnerabilities and increasing the risk of gender-based violence. The insights underscore the need for gender-sensitive climate action that centers the voices and rights of women and girls.
