CGI Action Network Webinar: Strengthening Food Security

According to the Caribbean COVID-19 Food Security & Livelihoods Impact Survey launched by CARICOM, small island states are experiencing loss of income, increased food prices, and limited market access due to the pandemic. The economic impacts of the crisis exacerbate the existing risks to food systems posed by high import rates and natural disasters. In an effort to reduce the recent supply chain disruptions and strengthen long-term food security, countries across the region are investing in preparedness and resiliency efforts including the investment in farm infrastructure and food production, the stockpiling of seeds and other inputs, and the promotion of community-level engagement such as the planting backyard gardens. On this call, attendees will hear from voices across the region discussing plans to take immediate steps to restore and strengthen food security for the upcoming hurricane season. Focus will be placed on tactical strategies to promote food security, like the adoption of backyard gardening and investing in infrastructure and capacity building.
