On 22 October, Dan Smith, SIPRI Director, engaged in a high-level seminar on food security in the wake of the ongoing COVID-19 crisis and how these issues link to conflict and climate change.
The high-level conversation will focus on ways hunger is a security risk and how we can work together to address the challenges. The discussion will provide an opportunity for SIPRI and the WFP to advance the issue on the global agenda and to advocate for food security as a driver of conflict prevention and sustained peace
