We are deeply grateful for the support of everyone who has contributed to the substantial progress we’ve achieved over the years, going from a bold project idea to the creation of a new subfield of research and its implementation. We now have scoped out the technology to produce enough food for humanity even in some of the most extreme scenarios possible, though policy and economic pathways still need to be developed. However we’ve already made tangible progress on implementation through both institutional plans and community-level technology solutions.

How ALLFED creates impact Centred on one of humanity's greatest vulnerabilities We are one of the very few organisations whose core [...] ---Outline:(00:11) Summary(01:25) How ALLFED creates impact(03:20) Why is our work important?
