The World Food Prize Foundation will host its annual Iowa Hunger Summit on July 30 at the Norman E. Borlaug Hall of Laureates. The free event, centered on the theme “From the Ground Up,” aims to symbolize how lasting change requires a lifelong commitment to nutrition, from infancy to older adulthood, according to a news release. The foundation is seeking applications for breakout session presentation ideas from those who are part of hunger-fighting organizations or have a history of work in improving nutritious food security.
