Operational issues in food response are complicated. Join Christopher Delgado for a conversation on the main similarities and differences for food crises in 2008 and 2022. What lessons did the Global Food Crisis Response Program of 2008-2012 teach us for the overall strategic and operational response to global food crises and how does it impact planning for the future?

Previously, he was Economics and Policy Practice Leader in the World Bank’s Agriculture and Environmental Services Department, he coordinated the Secretariat of the Bank’s Global Food Crisis Response Program (GFRP), and was Program Manager for the Global Agricultural and Food Security Program (GAFSP).
