ABOUT IFPRI’S 2020 CONFERENCE
Te international conference “Building Resilience for Food and Nutrition Security,” held in May 2014 in Addis Ababa, Ethiopia, was designed to inform, influence, and catalyze action by policymakers, nongovernmental organizations, the private sector, educators, researchers, and communities themselves to incorporate resilience into the post-2015 agenda and improve policies, investments, and institutions to strengthen resilience so that food and nutrition security can be achieved for all. Experts and practitioners from the resilience and vulnerability communities, as well as food and nutrition security, agriculture, humanitarian, and related development sectors came together to assess emerging shocks that threaten food and nutrition security, discuss approaches and tools for building resilience, identify knowledge and action gaps, and set priorities for action on this critical issue. For more information on the conference and its associated activities and products, go to

Tis Food Policy Report is based on the peer-reviewed paper, Current Approaches to Resilience Programming among Nongovernmental Organizations, prepared for the conference.

In partnership with the African Union Commission, IFPRI and its 2020 Vision Initiative are proud to contribute to the 2014 Year of Agriculture and Food Security in Africa.
