This paper seeks to enhance our understanding of resilience processes, activities, and outcomes by examining initiatives to enhance resilience capacity that are designed and implemented by nongovernmental organizations (NGOs).

Recently there has been a great deal of interest in applying the concept of resilience to pastoral systems and to development programs in pastoral systems.

This paper provides a structured overview of the concept of resilience for use in discussions surrounding food security and nutrition.

Increasingly, resilience is being incorporated into planning and social protection policy.

Food insecurity at the national and household level not only is a consequence of conflict but can also cause and drive conflicts.

We propose the development of a multicountry system of high-frequency, long-term sentinel sites in the world’s most vulnerable regions.

An emerging literature shows how the mass arrival of refugees induces both short- and long-term consequences to hosting countries.

While it is generally agreed that growth is a necessary precondition for reducing poverty, relatively little is known about the relationship between economic growth and nutrition and, hence, how economic policies can be leveraged to improve nutrit

This paper explores the nature of several key drivers of change in food systems and examines a number possible entry points for policy intervention to determine their effect on food prices and other market-driven outcomes.

The best approach to finding positive synergies between agriculture, nutrition, and health may depend on a country’s position in the dietary transition—from a diet low in both calories and micronutrients (Stage One) to a diet that provides adequat

This brief describes food safety risks along the value chain, identifies drivers of change, presents the risks posed to the poor by both food safety challenges and responses to them, and underscores the use of risk-based analysis to craft effectiv

Strengthening the policy and programmatic links between agriculture and health and nutrition requires a means of seeing how their myriad links fit together.

This brief examines how different growth patterns lead to different nutritional outcomes and identifies the factors that influence the magnitude of this relationship.

There is a growing consensus that reducing childhood malnutrition is a critically important goal, but there is far less agreement on what strategies can best achieve the goal.

Value-chain approaches are already used as development strategies to enhance the livelihoods of food producers, but they have, to date, rarely been used explicitly as a tool to achieve nutritional goals, and they have not been sensitive to nutriti
