ISDC Director Prof. Tilman Brück gave a KOSMOS lecture on 15 February 2024, at the Humboldt University, Berlin. Under the theme “Towards Zero Hunger,” Prof. Brück, an expert in nutrition security during crises, explored the pivotal role of economic research in overcoming global hunger and poverty. Using microeconomic analysis, he delved into the long-term effects of crises on livelihoods and food security in regions like Africa, the Middle East, and Asia.
As the Heisenberg Professor for Economic Development and Nutrition Security at Humboldt University, Tilman brings practical relevance to his research, advising national governments, the European Commission, international organizations, the United Nations, the World Bank, and many NGOs. Moderated by Prof. Dr. Martin Odening, Head of the Department of General Agricultural Economics at Humboldt University, this English-language lecture offers a unique opportunity for an insightful exploration of global hunger challenges.
