Is GMO Food The Solution for Hunger?

“Is genetically modified food the ultimate solution for hunger?”

This is one of the themes for the science class at the Summer School.

In the the first science lesson, students learned about the problem of hunger around the world. They discussed what causes this problem, who falls victim to it, as well as its wider repercussions.

One female student from Nepal explained that in her country, income inequalities between genders prevent women from earning enough money to buy food, and thus they most easily fall victim to hunger.

From the next lesson, students will conduct experiments and learn about genetic modification, whilst thinking about whether this method is an appropriate solution to hunger.

Imagine… if there was an ISAK lower school!

Dear Friends of UWC ISAK,

UWC ISAK is celebrating its 10th anniversary! We are proud of where we’ve come from, and we are excited about the next decade.

At this important milestone, we are wondering – in pursuit of broadening our impact, could an ISAK Lower School be considered as one of the options and would it be feasible? A school that embraces ISAK values and vision for a better future?

As we embark on this journey, if you would like to participate in possible market research and receive updates, please subscribe to our mailing list.
