| description | This paper addresses the magnitude and implications of food price changes in national and regional markets in Eastern and Southern Africa (ESA) with a view to provide the evidence base for effective policy action. Specifically, the paper:
- analyses trends and outlooks in country and regional data, presents evidence on
the regional food situation, and explores the nexus between high domestic food
prices and global food prices,
- highlights regional and national dimensions of food price increases and how they are related to food security in the region, and
- provides practical short-, medium- and long-term options for governments and
other stakeholders for addressing the problem posed by the food price crisis. |
