New Jersey 4‑H is recruiting a team of high school students to participate in the World Food Prize Research Project. Youth members will work with a team to develop individual research projects addressing global food security issues. Participants will meet once a week with mentors and peers to prepare their research project.
Projects will be presented at the Rutgers University Youth Institute Summit on March 11th. During this day-long program, students get to learn about critical global issues, network with local leaders, engage in hands-on-activities, and explore exciting ways to become effective change agents in their own communities, conscientious global citizens, and tomorrow's scientific humanitarian leaders.
