Trajectories into famine
Drawing on famine systems theory, this paper focuses on the factors that form a trajectory into famine. • Four cases of famine trajectories are reviewed from recent famines or near famine crises. • Identifying the factors that form a trajectory could help to more effectively disrupt those trajectories. • The shape of the trajectory is less important that the identifying its starting point. The prevention of famine is once again a significant huma…
Five levels of famine prevention
In recent years, the world has faced a rapid rise in humanitarian needs and an increasing risk of famine. Given the potential threats posed by conflict, climate change, economic shocks, and other issues, it is important to be prepared for the possibility of new crises in the future. Drawing on key informant interviews and a literature review, this paper assesses the state of the art in famine prevention, examining a range of technical and politic…
