Youth Ag Summit 2017 - Brussels, Belgium - Closing video (extended version)

The Youth Ag Summit is a global bi-annual conference designed to inspire and connect the next generation of young leaders in agriculture and related disciplines.

In October 2017, 100 young leaders aged 18 to 25 from 49 countries met in Brussels, Belgium, to create an open
dialogue on one of the world’s biggest challenges: how to feed a growing population in a sustainable manner. Following previous editions hosted in Canada and Australia, this year’s Summit was the first to be held in a European city.

Organized by Bayer, together with the two Belgian young farmers associations Groene Kring (GK) and Fédération des Jeunes Agriculteurs (FJA), the summit aims to address the UN Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) to end hunger, achieve food security, and promote sustainable agriculture.
