Date: TBA | Venue: SEARCA, Philippines
(By invitation only)
This two-part online policy roundtable will focus on the impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic on agriculture and food security in Southeast Asia and its policy implications. Experts in the field of food security will be invited as resource speakers to tackle the disruptions caused by the pandemic and the corresponding impacts on each dimension of food security. Policy recommendations will be elicited from the discussions, and concrete plans of action will be developed and disseminated to policymakers and other relevant stakeholders. Some of the action points may be used to leverage collaboration with partner institutions towards implementing a potential policy research in the SEA region.
