Our partners

To develop an approach for transforming Greater Mekong food systems that is capable of tackling the complexities of the problem, York academics are collaborating with partners from a range of international organisations and academic institutions. The wide range of partners involved in this research allows us to consider the social, cultural, economic, political and environmental aspects of the challenge facing the Greater Mekong Sub-region.
