U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID) Deputy Administrator Bonnie Glick announced today at an event in West Lafayette that USAID has awarded $10 million to Purdue University to lead the Agency’s first-ever Feed the Future Innovation Lab dedicated to food safety. The Innovation Lab will jointly leverage Purdue University’s and Cornell University’s expertise and research capacity in this area. Research and innovations developed through this partnership will help developing countries improve the capacity of their food systems to deliver safe and nutritious food for all citizens, especially the most vulnerable.
