Since 1999, it is convened alternately by anumber of German universities engaged in agriculture and forestry in tropical countriesin co-operation with the Council for Tropical and Subtropical Agricultural Researchfor Development (ATSAF e.V.) and the GTZ Advisory Service on AgriculturalResearch for Development. This year, for the rst time in its history, the TROPENTAGwill be held outside of Germany - at the ETH Zurich in Switzerland. Since quitesome years, members of the North-South Centre of the ETH Zurich have been regularparticipants of the TROPENTAG, leading to this adventurous experience of movingthe three-day conference to a new national and cultural environment.The TROPENTAG provides an international platform for scientic and personal exchangefor students, junior and senior scientists, development experts and fundingorganisations together with their various international partner institutions. The increasinginternational interest in the TROPENTAG of a large and still growing audience- some 1200 participants from 82 countries have registered so far - demonstratesits importance on the agenda of both, the development-oriented scientic communityand the implementing development organisations.The TROPENTAG 2010, organised by the North-South Centre of the ETH Zurich,will shed light on the conference theme `World food system - A contribution fromEurope¿.The world food system encompasses all the natural resources required for, and affectedby the production, distribution and consumption of food. This also includesresource management and food processing. The world food system provides the foundationfor the nutrition of humankind and includes all related ecological, economic,health and social aspects.The global population faces many challenging problems, among them populationgrowth, food, water and energy scarcity, climate and land use change, as well asthreats to human health. All these problems are interrelated and most are also connectedto the world food system. Food production under changing climatic conditionswill become even more difcult as human population grows, natural resources suchas soils and water become increasingly depleted, and global markets set divergingpriorities such as agriculture versus bioenergy. By providing relevant informationand advice, scientic knowledge supports policy-makers and society in implementingstrategies that address and solve these problems.The TROPENTAG 2010 will address these enormous challenges in a developmentorientedand interdisciplinary manner. To broaden the accessibility of the results ofthis venue, the abstracts of all contributions are published both as hardcopy and attropentag.de. In addition, student reporters will contribute to a multi-authorblog with text and visual content in order to increase the outreach of the conference.
