Enhancing nutrition and ending poverty: IFPRI and India

Enhancing nutrition and ending poverty: IFPRI and India

IFPRI’S PARTNERSHIP WITH INDIA BEGAN MORE THAN 40 YEARS AGO, IN THE WAKE OF THE GREEN REVOLUTION. Over the last four decades, IFPRI’s research in India has addressed the most pressing issues of the times. In the late 1970s, as food production in India stagnated and the population grew, the IFPRI-India working relationship focused on technology and rural development. In the 1980s, IFPRI delved deeply into India’s agriculture sector—on issues such as foodgrain production, subsidies, dairy development, and livestock demand—while in the 1990s IFPRI’s work focused on such topics as public expenditure and poverty in rural India and incentives and constraints in the transformation of Indian agriculture. Research since the 2000s has expanded to include nutrition, public investment, climate change, value chains, capacity strengthening, and biofortification. IFPRI receives critical financial and logistical support from the Government of India, especially through the Indian Council of Agricultural Research and the Department of Agricultural Research and Education, and works alongside numerous research partners in the country. This brochure highlights some of the key collaborations between IFPRI and our Indian partners.

Empowering women, enhancing nutrition, and ending poverty: IFPRI and Canada

Empowering women, enhancing nutrition, and ending poverty: IFPRI and Canada

Global changes with wide-reaching impacts include rapid urbanization, climate change, conflict-driven migration, and dietary transitions as well as uncertainty regarding trade and foreign investment. More than ever, responding to these challenges will require a systems-oriented, multidisciplinary approach to reshaping agriculture and food systems so that they work for everyone. IFPRI will spearhead research to understand and address these trends, build evidence for sound policies at the country and regional levels, and continue to focus on empowering women. IFPRI’s long-standing partnership with Canada has generated cutting-edge research in support of improved food security and nutrition, particularly for women and children, and gender equity, and IFPRI looks forward to continuing to work together to end hunger and malnutrition.
