On August 17, IFPRI Nigeria under the CGIAR Initiative on National Policies and Strategies (NPS) facilitated a seminar to make a presentation on “Assessing the Impacts of Income and Price Shocks on Food Security and Diets: The Food Security Simulator, Nigeria (FSSN)” in collaboration with the National Bureau of Statistics (NBS). The seminar aimed to discuss how policymakers, private sector companies, civil society organizations and other key actors can utilize the Food Security Simulator in addressing the challenges created by the recent global crisis in Nigeria. The presentation was made by Andrew R. Comstock, Senior Research Analyst, IFPRI Washington.
