Abstract

The Food Aid Convention (FAC), the international agreement that governs food aid for the world's hungry, is under renegotiation with a deadline of June 2011. This CIGI policy brief examines various options and suggests an alternative structure that would bring together FAC member countries and external bodies with expertise in food aid, food security and humanitarian assistance.
