Thanks very much Talent. Yes, the adaptation of the food insecurity experience to the COVID-19 pandemic is a great innovation especially as to attribute the insecurity that was already existing and that due to the pandemic. we look forward to the early results from these innovations. please share some of the experiences from what you are seeing so far.
Thank you very much Ethel for your contributions. I could not agree with you more. the utilisation of past data at this time is very useful. in addition, many organisations have made their past data available for utilisation. Analysis of the data, including being able to match and combine data is an essential skill to put into use at this time. Expert opinions are also important for contextual interpretation. There are a few models at this time such as those by IFPRI, EU, AfDB for analysis and evaluating scenarios, however, there is need to enhance capacity for modelling among evaluators.
