Food Security in Indonesia
Food Security An Evolving Concept Food Security = self sufficiency in major staple foods in the 50s and 60s Food Security exists when all people, at all times, have both physical and economic access to sufficient, safe and nutritious food to meet their dietary needs and food preferences for an active and healthy life (FAO, 2001) 5
Pillars of Food Security Food availability food supply Food access the ability of people to obtain food when it is available Food stability ensuring adequate food at all times Food utilization incorporates food safety and nutritional well being 6

Issues or Problems in Developing Human Resources in Food-Related Areas in University Education
Main Issues in Developing HR in Foodrelated Areas Rapidly changing society needs workers in the agrifood sector who have developed a broad knowledge base and a variety of skills Content and learning-teaching approaches need to be updated and internationally oriented Declining numbers of university students enrolling in agricultural studies Rebranding of degree programs Lack of understanding of career opportunities in agriculture Curricula and courses redesign and restructuring to better meet market needs and requirements
Main Issues in Developing HR in Foodrelated Areas Substantive engagement with industry regarding degree contents and graduate attributes Industry projects or internships included in degree program Innovation focusing on internationalization, societal responsibility and educational technology Technological innovation, increase of IT applications in education Integration knowledge and practices, work within the multi-functionality of agriculture
Expectation to a Future Cooperation Project for Developing Human Resources in Food-Related Area
The Asean-Japan Center for Global Food Security Studies Need to establish a new regional research center focused on global food security The ASEAN-Japan Center for Global Food Security Studies is a challenge and an opportunity to bring together ASEAN- Japan universities researchers from a wide range of discipline to focus and integrate research activities.
