SUMMARY:Impact of Russia_Ukarine Conflict on Food Security in Southeast Asia
DESCRIPTION:The global ripple effect from the Russia-Ukraine conflict and subsequent economic sanctions imposed on Russia have led to soaring energy prices and geopolitical tensions. The conflict has exacerbated yet another global existential threat: food insecurity. Together\, Russia and Ukraine contribute a significant proportion of the world’s grain and fertiliser exports\, of which Asia is a major buyer. These commodities have already leapt up to 40% in price due to shipping disruptions\, while the upcoming crop planting season remains uncertain. Southeast Asia is already feeling the pinch—livestock industries short on animal feed\, beloved Indomie noodles disappearing from shelves\, and crop commodities yielding lower profit margins. \nWith food security already affected by climate change and the pandemic\, how have governments in the region responded to this crisis\, and how do their strategies compare to others in the Asia Pacific region? Though alternative markets may be explored\, how do climate impacts affect their potential to fill the gap in global exports? Will the compounded effects of the pandemic\, climate change\, and de-globalisation dramatically change the food security landscape in Southeast Asia? This webinar will seek to answer these questions and provide an overview of how the Russia-Ukraine conflict exacerbates ongoing food security concerns in Southeast Asia. \nSpeakers:  \nProfessor Paul Teng \nGenevieve Donnellon_May \nPlease see more information at https://www.iseas.edu.sg/mec-events/impact-of-russia-ukraine-conflict-on-food-security-in-southeast-asia/ \nShare on FacebookTweetFollow usSave
