2020 ReSAKSS Conference -- Sustaining Africa's Agrifood System Transformation: The Role of Public Policies
IFPRI is participating in the 2020 ReSAKSS Annual Conference, which will bring together state and nonstate actors to deliberate on the key findings and policy recommendations of the ReSAKSS 2020 Annual Trends and Outlook Report (ATOR).
The report reviews how policy regimes have evolved in recent decades; examines the extent to which current policies for agrifood system transformation are aligned to the macroeconomic context and global trade environment; identifies policy gaps and alignments needed to sustain and accelerate agrifood system transformation; and discusses the institutional and political economy factors that are instrumental in shaping new policy choices.
