Goal action plan
The Action Plan is to raise awareness of the MSc Food Security Policy and Management Programme globally through a concerted promotional campaign using our network of partners and contacts around the world. This will be particularly targetted to food insecure countries in Sub-Saharan Africa, but also to Least Developed Countries in Latin America and South East Asia.
Our International Office at UCC will be more actively involved in promoting the programme around the world, and particularly to some of the larger developing countries such as India.
