We use our resources to help build capacity among resource-poor rural people in developing countries to achieve food and nutritional security.
We strive for a world where all people have access to the nutritious food they need on the terms they can afford, and where food is sustainably produced to protect local resources and respect cultural values.
Since 1993, The McKnight Foundation has committed $100.5 million to help build capacity to achieve food and nutritional security for resource-poor rural people in developing countries.
Experts in developed countries are linked with those in Asia, Africa, and Latin America who lack training or resources for comprehensive scientific studies. We take a holistic, ecosystem approach to agriculture, supporting research and partnerships that lead to increased crop productivity, improved livelihoods, and better nutrition.
