Cutting-edge research informing policies, programs, and interventions to end hunger and poverty across the globe, including a special section on IFPRI’s analysis of the impacts of COVID-19.
 

The COVID-19 pandemic has caused unprecedented disruptions of social interactions, affecting both the supply and demand for food. These disruptions to jobs, income and food supply magnified and exacerbated existing inequalities.

2020年在诸多方面都让我们始料未及。新冠肺炎（COVID-19）疫情为全球带来了一场大规模的公共卫生灾难，各国均陷入了疫情及其相关应对政策带来的不同程度的经济困境，面临服务严重中断和人员流动严重受限的局面。无论是富裕国家还是贫穷国家，均未能幸免。在中低收入国家，许多弱势群体直接面临食物安全、医疗和营养方面的威胁。丧失生计、营养不良、教育中断和资源枯竭造成的长期影响可能性非常巨大，特别是对许多国家来说，距离新冠肺炎疫情的结束还遥遥无期。

The coronavirus pandemic has upended local, national, and global food systems, and put the Sustainable Development Goals further out of reach. But lessons from the world’s response can help address future shocks and contribute to change.

Food systems need to be transformed if we are to meet the Sustainable Development Goals and increase resilience of these systems to shocks. The pandemic has provided useful lessons on opportunities and weaknesses that must be addressed.

The coronavirus pandemic has upended local, national, and global food systems, and put the Sustainable Development Goals further out of reach. But lessons from the world’s response can help address future shocks and contribute to change.

2020 год был во многом беспрецедентным.

L’année 2020 a été une période inédite à bien des égards.

As the coronavirus pandemic reached every corner of the world, countries responded rapidly with an array of policies to stop it, and then with social and economic policies to protect food security, incomes, and livelihoods.

El año 2020 fue un año sin precedentes en muchos sentidos.

Food systems hold the key not only to food security, but also to plant, animal and human health, as well as environmental sustainability.

The food systems approach can contribute to food security and reduced malnutrition levels by identifying key investments and policies throughout the food system, including production, processing, marketing, and consumption of food.

The global community has committed, as the first priority of the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), to end poverty in all its forms everywhere.

Today, agrifood systems are undergoing remarkable changes, reflected in the modernization of food value chains and rural transformation responding to urbanization, income growth, and expansion of international trade.

Explores key emerging issues facing developing-country agriculture today, from rapid urbanization to rural transformation to climate change

The five chapters on regional issues in agricultural development provide an overview of the various regional experiences and the transformation of agrifood systems.
