University of Alberta had organized 6-session certificate course in June 2021 on 'Climate Change and the Economics of World Food and Agriculture'. The aim of the course was to acquaint participants with relevant economics concepts and approaches, illustrate the application of those concepts and approaches, and review relevant empirical evidence from Canada and around the developing world. It also focused on addressing the dilemmas associated with technologies (eg biotechnologies, antibiotics, precision agriculture), new energy sources (eg solar, wind, biofuel), markets for new products (eg carbon, plant proteins, indexed insurance), and social protection against risks (eg floods, droughts, pests). As part of this course, Berber Kramer (Senior Research Fellow, IFPRI) gave a guest lecture on 'Making insurance accessible in developing country context'. The lecture had 152 attendees.
