Consultation launched on smallholders and food security

Ugandafruits2On 20 December 2012 the Knowledge network on Food Security and Nutrition launched a new consultation on behalf of the High Level Panel of Experts (HLPE) of the Committee on World Food Security (CFS), aimed at gathering inputs on the Version 0 draft (V0 draft) of the report on Investing in smallholder agriculture for food and nutrition security.

The invitation is also available in French and Spanish and comments are welcome in these languages. The deadline is 18 January 2013.

This consultation follows the earlier one aimed at defining the scope of the study. The HLPE holds open online consultations to gather informed inputs and to widen the circles from which evidence is made available, including experiences from the ground.
