Global health and development interventions often are predicated on the reallocation of women's time for the achievement of program objectives; yet research and programs have paid limited attention to women's preferences for and agency over their

Why is finding solutions to combat the increasing access to affordable ultra-processed foods so controversial and what strategies are necessary for policy change?

Micronutrient deficiencies, sometimes referred to as “hidden hunger,” are often less visible than other forms of undernutrition but nevertheless constitute a major cause of severe health issues.

This study investigates regional development and internal migration dynamics within the context of modern structural transformation in Sub-Saharan Africa.

The 2019 Ghana Social Accounting Matrix (SAM) follows IFPRI's Standard Nexus SAM approach, by focusing on consistency, comparability, and transparency of data.
