The Ceres2030 project - a joint initiative by the International Institute for Sustainable Development (IISD), the International Food Policy Research Institute (IFPRI), and Cornell University holds an online reflection on the implications of the COVID-19 pandemic for global food security on 7 April at 16h CEST/ 10h EST.

As the lock-downs continue and the commentaries on food security and COVID-19 start to come in, what are we learning? What do we know, what trends are suggestive, and what is still unknown? Carin Smaller from IISD will moderate the discussions among Christophe Bazivamo from East African Community (EAC), David Laborde from IFPRI and Jennifer Clapp from University of Waterloo and High Level Panel of Experts on Food Security and Nutrition (HLPE) for the Committee on World Food Security (CFS) on the implications of COVID-19 for agriculture and food systems, now and into the future.
