[Global Food Security by the Numbers]<http://ccga.informz.net/z/cjUucD9taT01MDM2NzQ4JnA9MSZ1PTEwMzQwMTQzMDAmbGk9MzA4OTM3MTg/index.html><http://ccga.informz.net/z/cjUucD9taT01MDM2NzQ4JnA9MSZ1PTEwMzQwMTQzMDAmbGk9MzA4OTM3MjA/index.html>


Good afternoon–

Today, The Chicago Council on Global Affairs released a new report, Global Food Security by the Numbers<http://ccga.informz.net/z/cjUucD9taT01MDM2NzQ4JnA9MSZ1PTEwMzQwMTQzMDAmbGk9MzA4OTM3MjE/index.html>, that outlines how more detailed accounting of how food security funds are spent and assigning federal agencies clearer roles and responsibilities would help ensure that US global food security programs are as effective as possible.

Efforts such as Feed the Future have shown that US investments in global food security successfully support development and position American businesses to take advantage of growth markets. Yet the report identifies challenges that could hinder the government’s ability to strategically direct and coordinate future food security investments and find solutions for measuring and improving food security programs.

To address these challenges, the report sets forth four policy recommendations: consistently defining global food security; provide more detailed accounting of Feed the Future and nutrition spending; clarifying roles and responsibilities of participating agencies to best leverage strengths; and authorizing a long-term commitment to global food security.

Please share this report with your friends and followers, and join us in conversation on Twitter (@GlobalAgDev<http://ccga.informz.net/z/cjUucD9taT01MDM2NzQ4JnA9MSZ1PTEwMzQwMTQzMDAmbGk9MzA4OTM3MjI/index.html>, #GlobalAg<http://ccga.informz.net/z/cjUucD9taT01MDM2NzQ4JnA9MSZ1PTEwMzQwMTQzMDAmbGk9MzA4OTM3MjM/index.html>) and on Facebook (facebook.com/globalagdev<http://ccga.informz.net/z/cjUucD9taT01MDM2NzQ4JnA9MSZ1PTEwMzQwMTQzMDAmbGk9MzA4OTM3MjQ/index.html>).
