"Building Consensus and Coordination on the Current Global Crisis Response Initiatives"

The AGA included a special high-level session to provide a discussion space for current international initiatives working to support food security during the crisis. 

The High-level panel conversation focused on the alliance of mechanisms, risk assessments, and the role of donor architecture for coordination.

This special session, on "Building Consensus and Coordination on the Current Global Crisis Response Initiatives" is called to discuss:
1 - How can the current donors' crisis response initiatives include both the necessary emergency measures to prevent immediate hunger and poverty, while keeping substantial focus on the medium- and long-term goal of resilience in food systems?
2 - How can donors ensure that their initiatives are sufficient to address the continuously increasing disruption of food, fuel, and fertilizers flows, and the resulting negative impacts on food security?
3 - How can donors ensure the coordination and harmonization required to amplify the objectives and results of their various initiatives?
4 - How can mechanisms such as the Global Donor Platform, along with its members and other stakeholders, ensure that dialogue and consensus-building are promoted and used to inform other forums, such as the G7, G20 and others?
