Global Board of Advisors

The TGC Global Board of Advisors was formed in April, 2005. 

Since TGC creatively combines innovations from two very different fields: horticulture and information technology, it is fitting (and honorable) to have two pioneers from these fields as our Co-Chairs: Dr. Marc Cathey and Vinton Cerf.

Likewise, since TGC connects such diverse areas – from IT to culinary to media – we sought to establish a high-level board that combines the ideas, expertise and resources of leading thinkers and activists from these different fields – all united by a common vision to improve nutrition, both in the United States and overseas. 

We are extremely lucky to have onboard advisors who are extraordinary, proactive individuals, each highly respected in their field: from the IT and horticulture sectors, through to the health, education, international development, entrepreneurship, culinary, entertainment and media sectors.

The Global Board of Advisors will provide TGC support with strategic and technical advice, resource mobilization and promotion and outreach.

Since TGC is a globe-spanning project rooted in local partnerships and grassroots action, TGC will also form local and national level advisory boards.
