Tomkins Abstract This paper discusses the major policy initiatives that have been developed to combat chronic food shortages in the world’s least developed nations. The United States has taken the world’s leadership position in trying to address chronic hunger and under-nutrition as part of its Feed the Future initiative, an effort that is linked to the G8’s L’Aquila Food Security initiative. Both initiatives focus on activities and outcomes that are intended to reduce food insecurity in the medium and long terms. Both initiatives operate in the context of the immediate food relief policies and practices that most nations subscribe to as part of the United Nations food security initiatives. KEYWORDS: food security, development Author Notes: Alan J.

  • Central Emergency Response Fund: Interim Review
    Central Emergency Response Fund: Interim Review Final Report Submitted to: Evaluation and Studies Section Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs By: Sheila Dohoo Faure Max Glaser OCHA FP: Alice Green Date: 19 September 2007 Acknowledgement The authors would like to acknowledge the many people who contributed to this review. First and foremost, they would like to express their appreciation to those in all the field offices of the Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs who coordinated the country case studies, often during busy periods for humanitarian response operations. They would also like to thank the interview respondents from OCHA, the UN agencies, non-governmental organizations, donors and national governments whose insights into the operation of the CERF at the country and global levels made the review possible. They were very patient in providing both their own views, as well as considerable background information on CERF operations. Secondly, the authors would like to thank the CERF Secretariat for the support provided throughout the review and its insightful comments on early drafts of the report. Comments provided by the Review Advisory Group also strengthened the analysis in the report and were much appreciated. Finally, the authors would like to thank Alice Green, the OCHA focal point for this study in the Evaluation and Studies Section, whose patience and support during the review was very much appreciated. Although many people contributed to this review, the opinions expressed in this report are those of the authors and do not necessarily reflect those of the UN Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs.

FERRIS: Okay, everybody. Let’s go ahead and begin. My name is Beth Ferris. I’m a senior fellow here at Brookings and co-director of the Brookings LSE project on internal displacement. We’re delighted to organize this panel together with Médecins Sans Frontières -- MSF -- on “Negotiating Humanitarian Access: How Far to Compromise to Deliver Aid.” The impetus for this program today came from the publication by MSF of their book that you probably saw as you came in called Humanitarian Negotiations Revealed: The MSF Experience. This book was published in part to commemorate MSF’s 40th anniversary. But you know, a lot of organizations, when they publish something on their anniversary, do so to highlight the achievements and the accomplishments and the impact of the organization.
