Abstract

Workshop participants helped identify areas for possible future programming in agriculture, food, and nutrition security in South East Asia. While there was considerable diversity in terms of priorities in each country, there was also a general call for action in three areas that could benefit all countries within a regional collaboration context (such as the Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN). These areas are: Policy research/analysis; Systematic study on agriculture-nutrition integration; Communications strategies and platforms.
