Fourth World Conference on The Future of Science

The Fourth World Conference on The Future of Science will explore a theme that brings science to the centre of social debate: Food and Water for Life. The aim is to offer a global vision about issues as water scarcity, development of a sustainable agriculture, food safety, food and health, improvements related to scientific and technological development and the economic, political and ethical involvements.
850 million people in the world suffer from hunger and over a billion have no safe drinking water. What can science do for them? Leading international experts will meet in Venice to illustrate how
science and technology can help solve a problem affecting everyone. The event is intended for scientists, economists, politicians, journalists, entrepreneurs, professionals, educators, students and anyone wishing to explore these issues in depth.
