Emergency Food Security Practitioners Forum
The Emergency Food Security Practitioners Forum collects and shares resources, best practices, and learnings related to emergency food security programming
About
The Emergency Food Security Practitioners Forum aims to help food security practitioners access a network of peers to share resources, best practices, learnings, and tools related to emergency food security programming.
Through this community, emergency implementing practitioners are able to:
- Share resources, best practices, learnings, and tools related to emergency food security program design and implementation with a network of peers
- Connect with other practitioners engaged in emergency food security issues (e.g. private sector, researchers, donors)
- Collaborate with BHA-funded mechanisms (e.g., IDEAL, SCALE, PRO-WASH, REAL, etc.) for information, feedback, and outreach related to emergency food security programming
The Forum intentionally focuses on food security programming in emergency contexts (including early action, relief, and early recovery). The topic “food security” is inclusive of programming related to food assistance (including cash-based approaches) as well as other activities that contribute to food security outcomes (e.g., agriculture and livelihoods in emergencies, nutrition-specific and nutrition-sensitive programming, disaster risk reduction, etc.).
