From its inception, the vision for the Water for Food Global Institute has been that of a non-traditional institute that would operate as a creative network with several constituent parts, strengthened by national and global partners including other universities, public sector institutions, private sector partners and NGOs.
WFI’s institutional strategy is thus based on the concept of the institute as a ‘distributed institute,’ with a core group of staff and drawing on faculty across all four campuses and disciplines of the University as well as its network of partners and affiliated faculty at other institutions, benefiting from the advice of both internal and external advisory bodies, and governed by a Board of Directors.
