This webinar showcased the WFP’s joint work with the EPRI, Maastricht University and the IDS in identifying the key challenges and opportunities faced in the Middle East, Central Asia and North, East and Southern African regions. Speakers presented a quick overview of the studies available to the general public, carrying out a comparative analysis of the global challenges and the context of each region to promote the food security and nutrition-sensitivity of social protection interventions. The discussion identified best practices, lessons learned and demonstrated the implications for policy and practice, as well as the lines of research and inquiry that are still open.
