Launching the Global Foresight for Food and Agriculture Tool

Co-Organized by the Food Security Portal, IFPRI, and the CGIAR Research Program on Policies, Institutions, and Markets (PIM)

December 18, 2019

  • 10:00 – 11:00 am (America/New_York)
  • 4:00 – 5:00 pm (Europe/Amsterdam)
  • 8:30 – 9:30 pm (Asia/Kolkata)

Join the Food Security Portal (FSP), International Food Policy Research Institute (IFPRI), and CGIAR Research Program on Policies, Institutions, and Markets (PIM) in the launch of the global foresight tool Impacts of Alternative Investment Scenarios. The tool was recently developed by IFPRI’s IMPACT model team and the FSP. The Global Foresight tool provides researchers and policymakers with a flexible way to explore the impact of various agricultural investment scenarios on agricultural production, productivity, and hunger for the period 2010-2050.

The webinar will provide information on how to use the tool and how it can be applied to inform decision-makers and other users. In addition to launching the new Foresight tool on agricultural investment scenarios, the webinar will involve discussing the important role of foresight tools in food and agriculture-related decision-making. The webinar will provide the space for experts in foresight modelling to share experiences, approaches, challenges, and implications for policy making associated with this area of research.
