Food Security

Last updated on 19 August 2008

Food security is a major focus of international humanitarian and emergency aid activities, and involves the early prediction of, and preparedness for, famine as well as the provision of food aid in natural disaster, conflict and other humanitarian or emergency situations. Timely access to accurate information and effective international cooperation are also a critical aspect of effective food security programs.

This section aims to provide a range of practical resources covering these issues.
