Alumni Webcast: Why does everything cost so much?
From droughts in California to Covid lockdowns in China, events occurring thousands of kilometres away are having a profound impact on household economies, hindering our ability to put healthy food on our tables and to stock our wardrobes and medicine cabinets.
Join us at our next Made by ±«ÓãÖ±²¥ alumni webcast as we sit down with a pair of ±«ÓãÖ±²¥ professors with expertise in economics, agricultural production and supply chain management to try to make sense of the global forces that have led to half-empty store shelves and rising costs for groceries and other household staples.
