A symposium at George Washington University featuring sixteen members of the Ukrainian agricultural community — owners and managers of agricultural operations, engineering companies, machinery dealers, and the agricultural advisory center BRIDGES. Speaking directly from the front lines of Ukraine’s economic war, the delegation discusses the impacts of the Russian invasion on food production, what is needed to sustain agricultural output, and what recovery will require after the war.
The event was organized by BRIDGES, a Kyiv-based consulting group serving as an advisory center for Ukrainian business and government, and hosted by GWU’s Environmental and Energy Management Institute.
