Water scarcity remains a key challenge for agricultural development in the MENA region, including Egypt.

Considering that Egypt’s agri-food system provided critical cushioning for economic growth, jobs, and household income negatively impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic, […]

Transformation of the agri-food system is a cornerstone of many governments’ national development plans and is key to the One GGIAR goals of contributing to more inclusive agricultural growth, healthier diets, and more sustainable production systems. Agri-food systems remain crucial for the livelihoods and wellbeing of most of the world’s poor, and successful agricultural transformation […]

Both climate change and the COVID-19 pandemic present powerful reminders of the importance of a resilient agricultural sector for ensuring food security and for protecting livelihoods and jobs. Yet, over the past decade, Egypt’s agricultural sector performance and output growth in key food crops has slowed. The future of agriculture in the face of climate […]

The COVID-19 pandemic is an important reminder and rationale for investing in resilient value chains and agri-food systems. The pandemic revealed important vulnerabilities in national and global food systems. Although the pandemic continues to ravish national economies, these impacts vary across sectors and value chains. Most sectors and value chains are being (negatively) affected by […]

COVID-19 is accelerating the use of digital technology and tools around the world. This trend also provides an opportunity to make complex investment analysis tools more user-friendly and ultimately to promote more evidence-based decision-making among governments. The Agricultural Investment Data Analyzer (AIDA) is the first online tool that uses an economy-wide model to assess the […]

In countries where gender norms prevent women from owning property and resources, people are also the hungriest. This is because gender equality and food systems are intertwined.  Too often, we only focus on the roles that women play in production, processing, trading of food, and in making decisions about consumption and purchase of food at […]

There is no single approach to reforming forest tenure practices for achieving gender equality and women’s empowerment. Rather, it involves taking advantage of opportunities that emerge in various institutional arenas, such as policy and law-making and implementation, government administration, customary or community-based tenure governance, or forest restoration at the landscape scale. The overall aim is […]

Digitization and digital tools provide an opportunity to make food systems more productive and efficient, climate-smart, and inclusive.

Recent studies show that global demand for digital tools has significantly increased during the pandemic, […]

The short- and long-term impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic on food systems remain uncertain, raising concerns about food security.
