Trade Policy Options for Enhancing Food Aid Effectiveness
This paper examines which policies and mechanisms on food aid have enabled recipient countries to improve their food security. Poor, net food-importing countries' situations have been exacerbated by the recent unusually high and volatile food prices. The author looks at options for improving food aid effectiveness, in the context of recent and projected food price trends, and sets out the implications these options may have for trade and development.
