Brodie Haugan represents Young Leaders at World Food Forum

October 16-20, 2023, a small delegation from the Canadian Cattle Association (CCA) attended the World Food Forum to highlight the sustainability story of the Canadian cattle industry at an international level.

Alberta Beef Producers’ Chair Brodie Haugan attended the event through the CCA’s Canadian Cattle Young Leaders (CYL) program as a past graduate. The Forum had a large focus on youth, providing an
excellent opportunity for young leaders in the beef industry to engage and amplify the message that we
need more, not less, sustainably produced foods like Canadian beef.

“The voice of youth is critical in the future direction of our industry, and it all starts with keeping young people at the table and engaged in the discussion,” said Haugan. “The World Food Forum was a great experience to learn more about the food security and climate challenges facing agriculture around the world, and how the Canadian beef industry can be an important part of the solution.”
