Deep dive: Food security’s climate (Devex Dish) 

August 10, 2022


Devex Dish published an article stating when COVID-19 hit, nations around the world scrambled for access to lifesaving tools to protect their citizens and curb the disease’s spread. The needs were enormous, but many countries lacked the capabilities and resources to respond. Cynthia Rosenzweig, who won the 2022 World Food Prize award highlights the increasing recognition of climate action and how it must be intertwined with the transformation of food systems if either effort is to succeed. IFPRI’s 2022 Global Food Policy Report found that food systems are “inseparably linked” to the climate change crisis, which is transforming — through adaptation and mitigation — the way the world grows, transports, and eats its food.
