2012 Fiscal Summit sponsored by the Peter G. Peterson. May 15, 2012, Washington, D.C.

Asked about the importance of striking a budget agreement this year, Sperling said that "the first year of a president's second term is a good time for people to come together and make hard choices that are good for the country." To that end, he said, "President Obama has been willing to accept things [Republicans] need for a budget agreement that he doesn't necessarily agree with. You've seen him show the political courage of doing things that many of his own supporters disagreed with ... He's about getting something done. He's willing to compromise ... He's showing the country that there's another way forward."

IFPRI, and USAID Alumni Association welcomed Sir Gordon Conway (Professor of International Development at Imperial College, London and former president of the Rockefeller Foundation) to speak at this Special Event, Sustainable Intensification is the Answer to Global Food Insecurity.

 

He emphasized that sustainable intensification offers a practical pathway towards the goal of producing more food while ensuring that the natural resource base, on which agriculture depends, is sustained and improved for future generations. He explored Sustainable Intensification through three mutually reinforcing pillars – Ecological Intensification, Genetic Intensification, and Socio-Economic Intensification.

Mr. Peterson called on both parties to look beyond their rigid orthodoxies -- particularly on taxes and entitlement spending -- and reach across the aisle to strike a deal. He insisted, however, that fiscal policy changes "must be made in ways that secure benefits for the msot vulnerable, so that no one fears the social safety net is threadbare."

The fifth annual Fiscal Summit held on May 14, 2014 in Washington, D.C., sponsored by The Peter G. Peterson Foundation.

May 7, 2013, sponsored by the Peter G. Peterson Foundation.

The purpose of the conference was to explore the future of America and how today's policy decisions will have a profound impact on determining the future role of the United States in the world.
