Resilience for Food and Nutrition Security brings together a series of informative briefs from the 2020 conference, “Building Resilience for Food and Nutrition Security” held in May 2014. This assessed emerging shocks that threaten food and nutrition security, discussed approaches and tools for building resilience, and identified knowledge and actions gaps. The briefs ask and answer questions such as, are shocks becoming more frequent? Why are some communities more resilient than others? What kinds of interventions are needed to move households from vulnerable to resilient? How can people’s food and nutrition security be assured in the face of different shocks? What works to build resilience?
