Early warning, early action: The innovations changing food crisis management

Published by Richard Chourlarton,

This article by Richard Choularton, a senior associate focused on food security and climate change at Tetra Tech International Development Services, gives five areas of innovation that enable earlier and more evidence-based responses to food crises, and help communities build resilience to climate change and disasters. These promising innovations are revolutionizing the way we can collect and analyze data, and allow people to access the information they need to make better decisions. While these tools have greatly improved our understanding of food security and early warning systems, they have also revealed barriers beyond having adequate early warning that prevent us from taking early action.
