Columbus, OH – Two students from Logan High School participated in the Ohio Youth Institute of the World Food Prize on September 5 at the Nationwide & Ohio Farm Bureau 4-H Center in Columbus on The Ohio State University campus. Sydney Hunter and Caleb Mathias, both seniors, attended the event and received the esteemed honor of Borlaug Scholar.
Caleb Mathias was selected to represent Ohio at the three-day Global Youth Institute in October hosted by the World Food Prize Foundation in Des Moines. Students from around the state completed a research paper on the topic “Ending Hunger in Our Lifetime: A Call to Action” and presented their findings to a team of OSU faculty experts.
At the Global Youth Institute, the delegates and their teacher mentors will interact with Nobel and World Food Prize Laureates and discuss pressing food security and agricultural issues with international experts. Participants in the national institute can apply for internships at agricultural research institutes throughout the world. In recent years, Ohio participants have obtained internships in Bangladesh, Taiwan, India, Kenya, Mexico and the U.S.
