Towards a more resilient agri-food system in Ghana post COVID-19
The policy brief provides an overview of how pre-COVID-19 stresses in the agri-food system in Ghana have interacted with pandemic fallout. In focusing on production and large-scale agriculture, the state has once again ignored women’s s major role in the informal food system, and fails to address challenges they face. This inhibits their prospects of economic recovery. Although Ghana has survived the pandemic without experiencing a national food shortage, traders, distributors and farmers have struggled to ensure a continuous supply of food to the country’s markets. Production is only one element; just as important are food storage and market access.
