The novel coronavirus disease (COVID-19) poses a new global threat. As the world battles this pandemic and as economies and livelihoods are disrupted, the poor and vulnerable are likely to suffer most. The COVID-19 crisis is challenging food systems and health systems around the world, and its unprecedented impacts on livelihoods raise serious concerns about food and nutrition security for many of the world’s poor.
IFPRI is actively working to support evidence-based policymaking in the context of COVID-19 at national, regional, and global levels. Please visit the spotlight page for IFPRI’s ongoing analysis of the impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic on food and nutrition security and development, including blog posts, publications, events, data tools, and more. IFPRI’s COVID-19 research is closely aligned with the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), including SDG 1, SDG 2, SDG 3, SDG 8, SDG 10, and SDG 17.
