As the United Nations warns of famine on a scale not seen in 50 years, researchers must help to build agile, inclusive data collection and analysis to inform agricultural policy. go.nature.com/2FxePIV

These young rural people are showing that they are not only the future, but also the present. Here 👇 we share a glimpse of their stories. ifad.org/en/web/latest/…

In partnership with @IFAD, we are creating the #HungerClock. Using over 3 million data points, we will provide the international community with the most accurate and granular hunger estimates to date. Forecasts will run until 2030, the end of the #SDG period. Coming soon.

In remote rural areas, small producers lack the basic infrastructure — banks, roads, power, and Internet — needed to run a business. Find out how we work towards vibrant, inclusive and sustainable rural economies. ➡️ifad.org/about

340 million full-time jobs could be lost with a second wave of #COVID19. A #TemporaryBasicIncome can be a tipping point to protect the most vulnerable & sustain local economies. More in @UNDP’s new report: bit.ly/3eMmrD7

Most of the poorest, hungriest and most marginalized people live in rural areas. IFAD has initiated a response fund with US$40 million of seed funding and we expect to mobilize at least US$200 million from other donors to scale up support. Find out more ifad.org/rpsf
