One Health
Economics, governance, and behavior
This area of work cuts across all other Initiative activities. It aims to identify and understand the barriers and constraints to the adoption of recommended practices by food system actors, including those influenced by gender. It also assesses the public and private benefits of innovations developed and evaluated through the Initiative, including potential trade-offs and the implications for the efficient allocation of public funds. Finally, it looks at the distributional effects and trade-offs between health, economic outcomes, and food security, developing mechanisms to ensure that innovations maximize benefits, and minimize potential harms, to the poor, women, youth, and other marginalized groups.
