The spread of COVID-19, and the range of policy responses to contain the pandemic, exert wide-ranging effects on agri-food systems and livelihoods.

IFPRI’s mission is to provide research-based policy solutions to sustainably reduce poverty and end hunger and malnutrition. Recent publications and websites examine the critical links between agriculture, nutrition, and health.

Les transformations fondamentales dans notre système alimentaire mondial, en partie précipitées par une urbanisation rapide, menacent l’accès des pauvres des zones urbaines à une alimentation saine et aggravent la malnutrition sous toutes ses form

Food-assisted maternal and child health and nutrition programs that incorporate food rations, a behavior change communication (BCC) strategy, and activities to improve the implementation and use of government-funded health services can improve chi

Evidence shows that food-assisted maternal and child health and nutrition (FA-MCHN) programs that target mothers and children during the first 1,000 days of life (from pregnancy to a child’s second birthday) succeed in achieving nutrition improvem

Food-assisted maternal and child health and nutrition (FA-MCHN) programs have long been used to address hunger and hunger-related problems. Traditionally, such programs targeted families with underweight children younger than five.

The Global Hunger Index (GHI) is a tool designed to comprehensively measure and track hunger globally, regionally, and by country.
