15 Oct Social Media Reporting from the CFS

This weekend I am attending a social media bootcamp (#CFS43SMB, for those of you on twitter) hosted by the Committee on World Food Security (CFS) and the Global Forum for Agriculture Research. (GFAR).
We will be learning about the art of social media, and for the next week we will be writing and publishing.  There are over 30 people signed up for this training, representing a very wide range of organisations and countries: universities (students and faculty), research institutes, private sector, social enterprises, and international organization  such as YPARD, Bioversity.
Some students from Wageningen University have joined me and will be posting their blogs here. You can read about those students here.
