WSDS 2025 Thematic Track - Building A Global Agri Stack: Boosting climate resilient agriculture and food security through digital public goods and infrastructure

Objectives of the Thematic Track

Join NIBIO and the Royal Norwegian Embassy in New Delhi at the World Sustainable Development Summit 2025 for an insightful discussion on leveraging digital public goods and infrastructure to enhance climate resilience and food security in agriculture. This event will showcase innovative technologies from projects like RESILIENCE and UPSCALE, highlighting their impact on sustainable farming practices.

Explore how these and other digital innovations by the Indian Government, such as the India Digital Agriculture Mission, AgriStack and PM KISAN Schemes, are transforming agriculture, fostering sustainable practices, and ensuring food security in the face of climate change. Learn about global collaborations such as the UNDP India’s Data in Climate Resilient Agriculture (DiCRA), the OpenAgriNet and Digital Public Goods Alliance (DPGA) internationalize these efforts across borders. Finally, engage with private sector players as to how they contribute to the digital transformation of agriculture through Digital Public Goods and Infrastructure. Engage with experts, policymakers, and practitioners to discuss scalable solutions and collaborative efforts for a resilient agricultural future.
