Sustainable agri-food pathways at heart of new U of G, UFV partnership

Two of Canada’s leading agri-food research universities — the University of Guelph and University of the Fraser Valley – have launched a new partnership aimed at advancing new pathways for sustainable innovation within Canada’s $140-billion food and agriculture industry.

This co-operation opens up new avenues for collaboration, including access to a rich cross-section of agri-food expertise on the West Coast and shared resources to help propel scientific research to practical food system solutions across Canada.

The memorandum of understanding (MOU) names long-time collaborators Dr. Evan Fraser, director of Arrell Food Institute (AFI) at U of G, and Dr. Lenore Newman, director of the Food and Agriculture Institute (FAI) at the University of the Fraser Valley as co-leaders of the partnership.
