Federica, Patricia and Saskia met at Georgetown University’s School of Foreign Service and Center for Latin American Studies. There, they observed first hand how challenging it can be to transition from knowledge production to reaching local communities that are food insecure. With their unique skill set, Federica, Patricia and Saskia bridge this gap. They see the end game, which aligns enduring food security solutions and their innovative clients.
