Universal approaches which provide aid to all individuals regardless of need are not always feasible given limited budgets and varying development priorities. Conversely, targeting directs resources to those in greatest need, ensures efficient allocation while upholding principles of social justice, equality, and the right to assistance.  <\/p>\n<p>This policy note summarizes the outcomes of a workshop held in Cairo on October 20, 2023, which brought together researchers, development practitioners, and policymakers. The high-level dialogue was part of the \u201cBridging Evidence and Policy\u201d (BEP) seminar series, a collaborative initiative by the Egyptian Food Bank (EFB), the International Food Policy Research Institute (IFPRI), and the Sawiris Foundation for Social Development (SFSD). The BEP series serves as a platform for knowledge exchange and collaborative learning among donors, local and international implementers, and government representatives, with a focus on improving targeting in development projects. This note highlights the key discussions, offering insights into best practices and recommendations to enhance the effectiveness of program targeting.<\/p>\n<div class=\"dspaceDetails\">\n<p class=\"ifb-desc\"><strong>Year published<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>2024<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"dspaceDetails\">\n<p class=\"ifb-desc\"><strong>Authors<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Shokry, Nada; Jovanovic, Nina; Kurdi, Sikandra; Hamdy, Adham; Elkaramany, Mohamed<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"dspaceDetails\">\n<p><strong>Citation<\/strong><\/p>\n<p class=\"citationDisplay uagb-ifb-desc \" data-identifier =\"10568\/168420\">Shokry, Nada; Jovanovic, Nina; Kurdi, Sikandra; Hamdy, Adham; and Elkaramany, Mohamed. 2024.

As detailed in Forsa evaluation reports, matching Takaful beneficiaries with jobs in the private sector is a major challenge on the household and on the beneficiary level.  In this policy note, however, we examine the challenges from the perspective of potential employers.

However, their adoption remains low and heterogenous across Africa. Smallholder farmers face significant barriers in accessing essential information, limiting their ability to seize market opportunities and enhance profitability. While numerous digital tools have been developed for farmers in the region, most are still in pilot phases. The landscape of digital agricultural innovations in Egypt, the focus of this study, presents a similar outlook, whereby the Egyptian market has an array of innovative digital study, presents a similar outlook, whereby the Egyptian market has an array of innovative digital agricultural tools that offer different services to farmers (including digital advisory agricultural and market services). Several demand and supply-side factors contribute to the low adoption of these digital innovations and their disparities among smallholder farmers in Africa and Egypt. On the supply side, the most important challenges include inadequate public and private investment in complementary infra-structure, unsustainable business models, and a misalignment in the pace of innovation. The most important demand-side challenges include lack of digital literacy, insufficient context-specific needs assessments, digital divide, and accessibility, usability, and user trust. User confidence and trust in digital tools is another important but understudied topic.. However, we lack empirically grounded evidence on alternative supply and demand-side interventions to enhance the adoption and scaling of digital innovations in various contexts, including Egypt.<\/p>\n<div class=\"dspaceDetails\">\n<p class=\"ifb-desc\"><strong>Year published<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>2024<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"dspaceDetails\">\n<p class=\"ifb-desc\"><strong>Authors<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Abdelaziz, Fatma; Abay, Kibrom A.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"dspaceDetails\">\n<p><strong>Citation<\/strong><\/p>\n<p class=\"citationDisplay uagb-ifb-desc \" data-identifier =\"10568\/152495\">Abdelaziz, Fatma; and Abay, Kibrom A. 2024.

The goal of the program is to graduate beneficiaries of Takaful to economic self-reliance by enabling them to engage in wage employment or small-scale productive enterprises. The Forsa program began in 2023 after significant delays. Obstacles to implementation included the Covid-19 pandemic, Egypt\u2019s economic crisis following the Ukraine-Russia war, and administrative challenges with procurement approvals.<\/p>\n<div class=\"dspaceDetails\">\n<p class=\"ifb-desc\"><strong>Year published<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>2023<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"dspaceDetails\">\n<p class=\"ifb-desc\"><strong>Authors<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Allen IV, James; Gilligan, Daniel O.; Kurdi, Sikandra; Shokry, Nada; Yassa, Basma<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"dspaceDetails\">\n<p><strong>Citation<\/strong><\/p>\n<p class=\"citationDisplay uagb-ifb-desc \" data-identifier =\"10568\/137221\">Allen IV, James; Gilligan, Daniel O.; Kurdi, Sikandra; Shokry, Nada; and Yassa, Basma. 2023.

As detailed in Forsa evaluation reports, matching Takaful beneficiaries with jobs in the private sector is a major challenge from the perspective of households.  In this policy note, we examine the challenges from the perspective of potential employers.

Takaful was designed in 2015 as a conditional cash transfer program providing income support targeted to the most vulnerable, namely poor families with children under age 18. As one of the largest programs \u2014 both in absolute terms and in terms of share of the population covered \u2014 in the wave of national cash transfer programs spreading across Africa, as well as an innovator among countries in the Middle East, Egypt\u2019s experience has the potential to serve as a model for these regions.<br \/>\nThe International Food Policy Research Institute (IFPRI), in collaboration with the Ministry of Social Solidarity, conducted a first-round evaluation of the program in 2017 to estimate its effects on household well-being (Breisinger et al. 2018). That evaluation found large positive impacts on several outcomes, most notably, household consumption. The second-round evaluation, conducted in 2022, found a shift toward greater investment in physical and human capital among program beneficiaries. This brief summarizes the main findings from that second-round evaluation, noting differences from the first evaluation results and providing key recommendations.<\/p>\n<div class=\"dspaceDetails\">\n<p class=\"ifb-desc\"><strong>Year published<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>2023<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"dspaceDetails\">\n<p class=\"ifb-desc\"><strong>Authors<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>El-Enbaby, Hoda; Elsabbagh, Dalia; Gilligan, Daniel O.; Karachiwalla, Naureen; Kolt, Bastien; Kurdi, Sikandra<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"dspaceDetails\">\n<p><strong>Citation<\/strong><\/p>\n<p class=\"citationDisplay uagb-ifb-desc \" data-identifier =\"10568\/130236\">El-Enbaby, Hoda; Elsabbagh, Dalia; Gilligan, Daniel O.; Karachiwalla, Naureen; Kolt, Bastien; and Kurdi, Sikandra. 2023.

To understand how well Forsa supports household income generation and to better understand the beneficiary household characteristics which may relate to program success, the International Food Policy Research Institute in collaboration with the Ministry of Social Solidarity is running a randomized control trial of the pilot Forsa program (see IFPRI MENA Regional Program Policy Note 21 for more details on the program and evaluation design). A baseline household survey collected in January-February 2022 provides a detailed picture of the eligible households in the targeted communities, including the employment situation and work-related skills of the household members intending to participate in Forsa. The household survey data was collected in the eight governorates of the pilot: Beni-Suef, Sharqia, Qalyoubia, Luxor, Fayoum, Menia, Souhag, and Assuit. 24 households Forsa-eligible households were surveyed in each of 323 communities: 16 households from the pool of current Takaful beneficiaries and 8 from the pool of Takaful rejected applicants. The final sample size was 7,752 households. Each household was asked whether they were willing to enroll in Forsa and, if so, which household member would participate in the trainings. 83% of sampled eligible households indicated willingness to enroll in Forsa. The large majority of these (77%) indicated a preference for the self-employment track.<\/p>\n<div class=\"dspaceDetails\">\n<p class=\"ifb-desc\"><strong>Year published<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>2022<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"dspaceDetails\">\n<p class=\"ifb-desc\"><strong>Authors<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Gilligan, Daniel O.; Kurdi, Sikandra; Tabe-Ojong, Martin Paul Jr.; Yassa, Basma<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"dspaceDetails\">\n<p><strong>Citation<\/strong><\/p>\n<p class=\"citationDisplay uagb-ifb-desc \" data-identifier =\"10568\/140940\">Gilligan, Daniel O.; Kurdi, Sikandra; Tabe-Ojong, Martin Paul Jr.; and Yassa, Basma. 2022.

Implemented by the Ministry of Social Solidarity, the program aims to graduate beneficiaries of the national cash transfer program, the Takaful & Karama Program (TKP), from being dependent on transfers from TKP to economic self-reliance by enabling them to engage in wage employment or sustainable economic enterprises. The most recent World Bank Economic Inclusion report (Andrews et al. 2021) highlights a recent increase globally in such graduation or economic inclusion programs, which now reach around 92 million beneficiaries from 20 million households across more than 75 countries. This rapid growth is raising demand for evidence on best practices in graduation program implementation. Egypt\u2019s experience with Forsa can contribute to such guidance.<\/p>\n<div class=\"dspaceDetails\">\n<p class=\"ifb-desc\"><strong>Year published<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>2022<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"dspaceDetails\">\n<p class=\"ifb-desc\"><strong>Authors<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>El Shabrawy, Atef; Gilligan, Daniel O.; Kurdi, Sikandra; Palloni, Giordano; Yassa, Basma<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"dspaceDetails\">\n<p><strong>Citation<\/strong><\/p>\n<p class=\"citationDisplay uagb-ifb-desc \" data-identifier =\"10568\/140944\">El Shabrawy, Atef; Gilligan, Daniel O.; Kurdi, Sikandra; Palloni, Giordano; and Yassa, Basma. 2022.

The first case aims to generate granular data on agricultural production, which remain scarce in Egypt and the MENA region. The second case demonstrates the potential of remote sensing data to monitor economic activities during the COVID19 pandemic. Based on these data and together with other recent findings, we provide the following recommendations to facilitate post-COVID-19 recovery in Egypt: \u25ba Targeting of stimulus and recovery packages based on the economic repercussions experienced across geographies and sectors \u25ba Identifying and supporting promising value chains which experienced a significant slowdown in economic activities \u25ba Diversifying economic activities and markets to improve the resilience of agri-food systems. \u25ba Investment in data infrastructure to monitor and respond to future shocks. This may be supported by scale up of digital solutions, which proved to be effective in sustaining business activities even during the pandemic.<\/p>\n<div class=\"dspaceDetails\">\n<p class=\"ifb-desc\"><strong>Year published<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>2022<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"dspaceDetails\">\n<p class=\"ifb-desc\"><strong>Authors<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Abay, Kibrom A.; Abdelradi, Fadi; Kassim, Yumna; Guo, Zhe<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"dspaceDetails\">\n<p><strong>Citation<\/strong><\/p>\n<p class=\"citationDisplay uagb-ifb-desc \" data-identifier =\"10568\/140942\">Abay, Kibrom A.; Abdelradi, Fadi; Kassim, Yumna; and Guo, Zhe. 2022.

We quantitatively assess the expected economy-wide impacts of investing in four promising agricultural value-chains: dates, poultry, olives, and medicinal and aromatic plants (MAP). As part of the analysis, a range of agriculture-related public investments along the value-chains are considered, including spending to expand farm production and promotion of downstream agri-processing and marketing. We use two IFPRI structural models. The Rural Investment and Policy Analysis (RIAPA) economywide model is used to capture linkages between economic sectors, households, and rural-urban economies and to measure changes in economic growth, household welfare, and employment within and beyond the agri-food system. RIAPA is linked to the Agricultural Investment and Data Analysis (AIDA), the second model, which tracks investment impacts and costs over time. Inter alia, we find that: Investments into each of the four agricultural value chains enhance growth, create additional employment opportunities, improve household welfare, and reduce poverty. The MAP and poultry value chains are the most promising value chains with regard to all four evaluation criteria. However growth generation is largest if investment is concentrated in the MAP value chain, while investment into the poultry value chain has the strongest impacts on job creation and poverty reduction. Investments into primary production and processing, besides having a strong direct impact on the value chain growth, generate significant indirect effects inside and outside the agrifood system. These indirect effects are largest for the MAP value chain.<\/p>\n<div class=\"dspaceDetails\">\n<p class=\"ifb-desc\"><strong>Year published<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>2022<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"dspaceDetails\">\n<p class=\"ifb-desc\"><strong>Authors<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>El-Kersh, Mohamed; Atef, Mohamed; Ali, Alaa; Farghaly, Lobna; Abderabuh, Zainab; Abdelradi, Fadi; Abdou, Khaled; Abdelaziz, Ehab; Faris, Victor; Nasr, Saleh; Nassar, Yasmin; Nassar, Zaki; Raouf, Mariam; Wiebelt, Manfred<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"dspaceDetails\">\n<p><strong>Citation<\/strong><\/p>\n<p class=\"citationDisplay uagb-ifb-desc \" data-identifier =\"10568\/140945\">El-Kersh, Mohamed; Atef, Mohamed; Ali, Alaa; Farghaly, Lobna; Abderabuh, Zainab; Abdelradi, Fadi; Abdou, Khaled; Abdelaziz, Ehab; Faris, Victor; Nasr, Saleh; Nassar, Yasmin; Nassar, Zaki; Raouf, Mariam; and Wiebelt, Manfred. 2022.

These are expected to trigger various responses and adaptation strategies, including agricultural intensification induced by land scarcity, as postulated by the Boserup hypothesis. However, most empirical evaluations of the hypothesis come from rainfed agriculture and mostly from sub-Saharan Africa, where application of agricultural inputs remains historically low. Agricultural intensification practices and the relevance of the Boserup hypothesis in irrigated agriculture (and where application of improved inputs is high) remains unexplored. We investigate the implication of land scarcity on agricultural intensification and the relevance of the Boserup hypothesis in the context of Egypt, where agriculture is dominated by irrigation and input application rates are much higher than elsewhere in Africa. We find that land scarcity increases overapplication of nitrogen fertilizer relative to crop-specific agronomic recommendations. This implies that land constraints remain as important challenges for sustainable agricultural intensification. Finally, we find suggestive evidence that such overapplication of nitrogen fertilizers is not yield-enhancing, but, rather, yield-reducing. We also document that land scarcity impedes mechanization of agriculture.<\/p>\n<div class=\"dspaceDetails\">\n<p class=\"ifb-desc\"><strong>Year published<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>2021<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"dspaceDetails\">\n<p class=\"ifb-desc\"><strong>Authors<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Abay, Kibrom A.; El-Enbaby, Hoda; Abdelfattah, Lina Alaaeldin; Breisinger, Clemens<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"dspaceDetails\">\n<p><strong>Citation<\/strong><\/p>\n<p class=\"citationDisplay uagb-ifb-desc \" data-identifier =\"10568\/143756\">Abay, Kibrom A.; El-Enbaby, Hoda; Abdelfattah, Lina Alaaeldin; and Breisinger, Clemens. 2021.

Data from three general circulation models of climate were used to better understand the likely effects of climate changes on Egypt\u2019s agricultural sector. The findings show largely adverse biophysical effects of climate change by 2050. Compared to a no-climate change scenario, yields for food crops are projected to decline by over 10 percent by 2050 due to higher temperatures and water stress as well as increased salinity of irrigation water. The highest biophysical yield declines are estimated for maize, sugar crops, and fruits and vegetables. Moreover, due to the country\u2019s dependence on food imports, Egypt is not only affected by climate change impacts at home, but also by impacts in other food producing countries. Climate change-induced increases in food prices will reduce Egypt\u2019s food import demand, while also dampening demand for Egypt\u2019s exports. The implications for Egypt are tighter food markets with both reduced domestic production and increased difficulties to import food making it more difficult to augment domestic food supplies. This situation suggests the need for investments in climate change adaptation in the agriculture sector. Global cooperation to mitigate greenhouse gas emissions is also warranted given the high cost to Egypt\u2019s society from adverse climate change impacts worldwide.<\/p>\n<div class=\"dspaceDetails\">\n<p class=\"ifb-desc\"><strong>Year published<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>2021<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"dspaceDetails\">\n<p class=\"ifb-desc\"><strong>Authors<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Perez, Nicostrato D.; Kassim, Yumna; Ringler, Claudia; Thomas, Timothy S.; ElDidi, Hagar<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"dspaceDetails\">\n<p><strong>Citation<\/strong><\/p>\n<p class=\"citationDisplay uagb-ifb-desc \" data-identifier =\"10568\/143758\">Perez, Nicostrato D.; Kassim, Yumna; Ringler, Claudia; Thomas, Timothy S.; and ElDidi, Hagar. 2021.

This brief summarizes the results of a modeling exercise to examine a range of climate change adaptation approaches to counteract agricultural productivity declines. Rather than simulating a single technology, a \u2018suite of technologies\u2019 approach was used. For several food crops, none of the technology suites, individually or in combination, are shown to counteract the adverse impacts of climate change. For these crops, which include maize, oilseeds, pulses, and sugar, even stacking of technologies will not return productivity to pre-climate change levels. However, for fruits and vegetables, potatoes, rice, and wheat, crops less adversely affected by climate change, increased investments in climate changeresponsive crop traits, soil fertility improvement, water management, crop protection, or a combination of these technologies can counteract the adverse impacts of climate change on agricultural productivity. From a perspective, strong cooperation with the rest of the world on climate change adaptation will ultimately benefit Egyptian consumers. Doing so will reduce disruption of global food markets, which is of particular importance for countries, like Egypt, that are well integrated into those markets. In particular, Egypt\u2019s economy and all Egyptian consumers benefit from the importation of lower-value, high water-consuming cereals under the hotter and drier conditions that can be expected in Egypt in the future due to climate change.<\/p>\n<div class=\"dspaceDetails\">\n<p class=\"ifb-desc\"><strong>Year published<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>2021<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"dspaceDetails\">\n<p class=\"ifb-desc\"><strong>Authors<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Perez, Nicostrato D.; Kassim, Yumna; Ringler, Claudia; Thomas, Timothy S.; ElDidi, Hagar<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"dspaceDetails\">\n<p><strong>Citation<\/strong><\/p>\n<p class=\"citationDisplay uagb-ifb-desc \" data-identifier =\"10568\/143755\">Perez, Nicostrato D.; Kassim, Yumna; Ringler, Claudia; Thomas, Timothy S.; and ElDidi, Hagar. 2021.

The briefs have been prepared on the basis of a joint symposium and are intended to give policymakers and program designers in the areas of social protection, nutrition, agricultural policy, and the digitalization of agriculture a quick overview of research-based recommendations on key policy issues that will better enable Egypt to achieve several of the goals outlined in the Sustainable Development Strategy 2030. This policy note highlights how digital tools can help improve monitoring, evaluation, and extension services in Egypt\u2019s agriculture sector and how policy analysis can be institutionalized to guide transformation of the food system and rural economies. Four recommendations are discussed: Building on ongoing efforts, continue to digitize agricultural information systems, build and link agricultural databases, and exploit new sources of data. Build on ongoing projects that develop mobile telephone applications for farmers and learn from international experiences to revitalize and digitalize agricultural extension in Egypt. Build the capacity of agricultural policy analysts within the Ministry of Agriculture and Land Reclamation and universities, using both conventional and new digital tools to provide high-quality, research-based policy advice. Promote further digitalization to improve the resilience of food systems in view of shocks, such as the COVID-19 pandemic.<\/p>\n<div class=\"dspaceDetails\">\n<p class=\"ifb-desc\"><strong>Year published<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>2020<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"dspaceDetails\">\n<p class=\"ifb-desc\"><strong>Authors<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>International Food Policy Research Institute<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"dspaceDetails\">\n<p><strong>Citation<\/strong><\/p>\n<p class=\"citationDisplay uagb-ifb-desc \" data-identifier =\"10568\/143768\">International Food Policy Research Institute (IFPRI). 2020.

This resilience is mainly explained by the successful implementation of the economic reform program since 2016 that provided more fiscal space to withstand the adverse impact of the COVID-19 crisis. However, that Egypt\u2019s economy is holding up is also due to the rapid response and proactive measures to limit the impact of the virus that were implemented by the Egyptian Government since March 2020 (MPED 2020). These enabled the country to avoid a full lockdown policy (Figure 1). While Egypt posted negative economic growth rates from April to June 2020 at the height of the crisis, overall economic growth was still positive at 3.6 percent for fiscal year (FY) 2019\/20. This estimate is only slightly lower than the initial projection of the impact of the pandemic on Egypt\u2019s economy of an annual economic growth equal to 3.8 percent, as estimated by staff of the International Food Policy Research Institute (IFPRI) and the Ministry of Planning and Economic Development (MPED) (Breisinger et al. 2020). The deviation between the early and final estimate can be mainly explained by the lower than expected growth rates in the manufacturing and health services sectors and the better than expected performance of the trade and transport sectors.

Addressing all forms of malnutrition \u2013 both undernutrition and overnutrition \u2013 remains a human and economic development challenge that Egypt must overcome. This brief highlights three areas of action to significantly improve the nutritional status of all Egyptians: Make domestic food policies more nutrition-sensitive and incentivize food producers and marketers to shift to the production, processing, and marketing of healthier foods. Expand ongoing awareness and educational campaigns, such as the 100 Million Healthy Lives initiative, to promote improved nutrition and to disseminate nutrition knowledge. The COVID-19 pandemic is an additional reminder and rationale for investing in healthy diets and sustainable food systems. Promote research to make nutrition policy more effective and efficient, including by increasing collection of nutrition-related data and better sharing of already collected data among ministries, research institutes, and other stakeholders.<\/p>\n<div class=\"dspaceDetails\">\n<p class=\"ifb-desc\"><strong>Year published<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>2020<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"dspaceDetails\">\n<p class=\"ifb-desc\"><strong>Authors<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>International Food Policy Research Institute<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"dspaceDetails\">\n<p><strong>Citation<\/strong><\/p>\n<p class=\"citationDisplay uagb-ifb-desc \" data-identifier =\"10568\/143773\">International Food Policy Research Institute (IFPRI). 2020.

This brief highlights the importance of enabling farmers so that they can contribute significantly to a broader transformation and to resilience of Egypt\u2019s food system and rural economy. Five areas of action are highlighted: Invest in a renewed system of agricultural extension services, with an emphasis on new technologies and production systems and on nontraditional crops. Ease rigidities for farmers and increase the market orientation of the agriculture sector, including markets for fertilizer and staple crops. Revisit the current irrigation management system to allow for the adoption of new irrigation technologies and increased efficiency of water usage. Support the development of agro-processing value chains where there are missing markets or market frictions in order to achieve a sustainable and nutrition-sensitive food system. Coordinate agricultural policy with policies of other government ministries to support rural transformation and employment opportunities off the farm.<\/p>\n<div class=\"dspaceDetails\">\n<p class=\"ifb-desc\"><strong>Year published<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>2020<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"dspaceDetails\">\n<p class=\"ifb-desc\"><strong>Authors<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>International Food Policy Research Institute<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"dspaceDetails\">\n<p><strong>Citation<\/strong><\/p>\n<p class=\"citationDisplay uagb-ifb-desc \" data-identifier =\"10568\/143769\">International Food Policy Research Institute (IFPRI). 2020.

The briefs have been prepared on the basis of a joint symposium and are intended to give policy makers and program designers in the areas of social protection, nutrition, agricultural policy, and the digitalization of agriculture a quick overview of research-based recommendations on key policy issues that will better enable Egypt achieve several of the goals outlined in the Sustainable Development Strategy 2030. Social protection programs are essential for supporting Egyptians who are economically the most vulnerable. This brief makes the argument for moving more decisively toward a cash-based social protection system in Egypt. Four areas of action are highlighted: Continue the well-functioning Takaful and Karama program and consider increasing its budget to adjust transfers to inflation. Consider improving the targeting for Tamween food subsidies and integrating Takaful and Karama with Tamween. Continue the use of transparent and independent impact evaluations to assess social protection programs in order to maximize their benefits for Egypt and its people. Maintain the ability to respond flexibly to future shocks as an important feature of solidifying the national social protection system.<\/p>\n<div class=\"dspaceDetails\">\n<p class=\"ifb-desc\"><strong>Year published<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>2020<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"dspaceDetails\">\n<p class=\"ifb-desc\"><strong>Authors<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>International Food Policy Research Institute<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"dspaceDetails\">\n<p><strong>Citation<\/strong><\/p>\n<p class=\"citationDisplay uagb-ifb-desc \" data-identifier =\"10568\/143772\">International Food Policy Research Institute (IFPRI). 2020.

Nine agriculture-related public investments are considered, including targeting public spending to expand farm production, e.g., irrigation improvements, input subsidies, agricultural research, and extension, and to promote downstream agro-processing and marketing. The outcome indicators considered are economic (GDP) growth, incomes of the poor, job creation, and dietary diversity. IFPRI\u2019s Rural Investment and Policy Analysis (RIAPA) economywide model is used for the evaluation because it captures linkages between sectors, households, and rural-urban economies and measures changes within and beyond the agri-food system. RIAPA is linked to the Agricultural Investment and Data Analysis (AIDA) module that tracks investment impacts and costs over time. The ranked results of the public investment options considered, summarized in the table here, can help prioritize agri-food system investments for post-COVID-19 recovery.<\/p>\n<div class=\"dspaceDetails\">\n<p class=\"ifb-desc\"><strong>Year published<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>2020<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"dspaceDetails\">\n<p class=\"ifb-desc\"><strong>Authors<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Thurlow, James; Holtemeyer, Brian; Kassim, Yumna; Kurdi, Sikandra; Randriamamonjy, Jos\u00e9e; Raouf, Mariam; Elsabbagh, Dalia; Wiebelt, Manfred; Breisinger, Clemens<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"dspaceDetails\">\n<p><strong>Citation<\/strong><\/p>\n<p class=\"citationDisplay uagb-ifb-desc \" data-identifier =\"10568\/143764\">Thurlow, James; Holtemeyer, Brian; Kassim, Yumna; Kurdi, Sikandra; Randriamamonjy, Jos\u00e9e; Raouf, Mariam; Elsabbagh, Dalia; Wiebelt, Manfred; and Breisinger, Clemens. 2020.

Employing Google search data, we examine the implications of COVID-19 on demand for various services in Egypt. \u2022 We find that demand for those services that require face-to-face interaction, including hotels and restaurants, air travel and tourism services, significantly dipped after Egypt detected the first COVID-19 case and more so after the Egyptian government introduced major restrictions and curfews. For instance, in the first two months of the outbreak of the pandemic, February and March, demand for hotel and restaurant services contracted by about 70 percent. \u2022 In contrast, demand for services that substitute or reduce personal interactions, such as information and communications technologies (ICT) and delivery services, have enjoyed a significant boost. Demand for ICT services tripled, while demand for delivery services doubled in the four months since the outbreak of the pandemic. \u2022 Intuitively, these results suggest that individuals and enterprises operating in these sectors are expected to experience heterogenous impacts and damages associated with the pandemic. Our results, along with other evolving evidence, reinforce that those services and sectors negatively affected by the outbreak and spread of COVID-19 deserve attention. \u2022 Finally, our analysis highlights the potential of near real-time \"big data\" to substitute and complement conventional data sources to estimate economic impacts and, hence, inform immediate and medium-term policy responses.<\/p>\n<div class=\"dspaceDetails\">\n<p class=\"ifb-desc\"><strong>Year published<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>2020<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"dspaceDetails\">\n<p class=\"ifb-desc\"><strong>Authors<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Abay, Kibrom A.; Ibrahim, Hosam<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"dspaceDetails\">\n<p><strong>Citation<\/strong><\/p>\n<p class=\"citationDisplay uagb-ifb-desc \" data-identifier =\"10568\/143765\">Abay, Kibrom A.; and Ibrahim, Hosam. 2020.

Without the Government of Egypt\u2019s COVID-19 emergency response package, GDP in Q4 may have declined by 8.7 percent. Tak-ing the emergency response pack-age into account, we estimate an annual growth rate of 3.8 percent for FY 2019\/20. Without the emer-gency response package, annual growth for FY 2019\/20 may have been as low as 1.9 percent. The services sector is hit hardest, falling by 10.9 percent, followed by industry at -8.3 percent. Agriculture is the most resilient sector. However, these losses are lower than those expected in comparable countries, especially those that resorted to extended periods of full lockdowns. Impacts on Egypt\u2019s agri-food system are less severe than elsewhere in the economy. Most damage will occur in nonfarm components of the agri-food system due to falling consumer demand. Although higher-income households face the largest income losses, lower-income households also will see their incomes decline significantly. The level of social protection required to fully offset the income losses of poor households is likely to be prohibitive, especially given falling revenues from reduced economic activity. Continuing to gradually open the economy again will be critical for avoiding permanent job losses and increases in poverty for the coming year. The process of re-opening the economy may also provide opportunities for fostering more private sector-driven and sustainable economic transformation.<\/p>\n<div class=\"dspaceDetails\">\n<p class=\"ifb-desc\"><strong>Year published<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>2020<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"dspaceDetails\">\n<p class=\"ifb-desc\"><strong>Authors<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Breisinger, Clemens; Raouf, Mariam; Wiebelt, Manfred; Kamaly, Ahmed; Karara, Mouchera<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"dspaceDetails\">\n<p><strong>Citation<\/strong><\/p>\n<p class=\"citationDisplay uagb-ifb-desc \" data-identifier =\"10568\/143763\">Breisinger, Clemens; Raouf, Mariam; Wiebelt, Manfred; Kamaly, Ahmed; and Karara, Mouchera. 2020.

We examine the likely impact on the Egyptian economy of a significant reduction in tourism, payments received from the Suez Canal, and remittances from Egyptians working abroad because of the slowdown in the global economy due to the COVID-19 virus. Our results suggest that COVID-19 could reduce national GDP by between 0.7 and 0.8 percent (EGP 36 to 41 billion) for each month that the global crisis continues. Similarly, household consumption and expenditure is estimated to decline on average by between EGP 153 and EGP 180 per person per month, which is between 9.0 and 10.6 percent of average household income. The cumulative loss in GDP from these three external shocks alone could amount to between 2.1 and 4.8 percent of annual GDP in 2020 if the crisis lasts for 3 to 6 months. While the country\u2019s focus currently is rightly on fighting the health crisis and mitigating its immediate impacts, planning on how to re-open the economy should also start now.<\/p>\n<div class=\"dspaceDetails\">\n<p class=\"ifb-desc\"><strong>Year published<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>2020<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"dspaceDetails\">\n<p class=\"ifb-desc\"><strong>Authors<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Breisinger, Clemens; Abdelatif, Abla; Raouf, Mariam; Wiebelt, Manfred<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"dspaceDetails\">\n<p><strong>Citation<\/strong><\/p>\n<p class=\"citationDisplay uagb-ifb-desc \" data-identifier =\"10568\/143761\">Breisinger, Clemens; Abdelatif, Abla; Raouf, Mariam; and Wiebelt, Manfred. 2020.

To narrow this knowledge gap, a smallholder farm household survey was conducted in six governorates in Upper Egypt in April and May 2018 following the winter cropping season. The survey provides comprehensive information on agriculture, nutrition, and health. Specifically, the study sought to identify potential levers and challenges along the agriculture-nutrition impact pathways, with attention to value chain development approaches for promoting horticulture. This policy note presents findings from the survey.

Takaful (\u201cSolidarity\u201d) supports poor families with children under 18, while Karama (\u201cDignity\u201d) supports the elderly poor and people living with disabilities. The cash transfer program has enrolled 2.25 million families across all of Egypt\u2019s governorates. The amount of the Takaful cash transfer provided to households depends on the number of children and their school level. The Karama program provides a set amount per individual. In order to reach the poorest households, participants are selected using a proxy means test. In the Takaful program, 89 percent of recipients are women, while only 11 percent are men. Beginning in 2018, Takaful will also begin implementing conditionalities, requiring households in the program to ensure their children attend school and participate in health screenings, added to antenatal care for pregnant women and post-natal care. The Takaful and Karama program was evaluated by the International Food Policy Research Institute (IFPRI) using both quantitative statistical methods (simple questions asked to many households during a survey) and qualitative methods (more in-depth questions asked to fewer households in longer interviews). The evaluation was designed to measure and explain the impacts of the cash transfers on household welfare, and to examine whether the program\u2019s criteria for household selection were effective in identifying poor households. This brief, which focuses on the Takaful component of the program, summarizes the main findings from the evaluation and key recommendations.<\/p>\n<div class=\"dspaceDetails\">\n<p class=\"ifb-desc\"><strong>Year published<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>2018<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"dspaceDetails\">\n<p class=\"ifb-desc\"><strong>Authors<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Breisinger, Clemens; ElDidi, Hagar; El-Enbaby, Hoda; Gilligan, Daniel O.; Karachiwalla, Naureen; Kassim, Yumna; Kurdi, Sikandra; Jilani, Amir Hamza; Thai, Giang<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"dspaceDetails\">\n<p><strong>Citation<\/strong><\/p>\n<p class=\"citationDisplay uagb-ifb-desc \" data-identifier =\"10568\/146853\">Breisinger, Clemens; ElDidi, Hagar; El-Enbaby, Hoda; Gilligan, Daniel; Karachiwalla, Naureen; Kassim, Yumna; Kurdi, Sikandra; Jilani, Amir Hamza; and Thai, Giang. 2018.

These crises included the avian influenza epidemic in 2006; the food, fuel, and financial crises of 2007-2009; a further rallying of global food prices starting in late 2010; and the challenging macroeconomic context that followed political instability in the wake of the 2011 revolution (see Figure 1).

It is based on a five-year IFPRI research program that examined, among other issues, the roles government should play in providing financial services to meet the needs of the poor, through a series of detailed household surveys conducted in nine countries of Africa and Asia: Bangladesh, Cameroon, China, Egypt, Ghana, Madagascar, Malawi, Nepal, and Pakistan.... [The brief asks us to consider these questions:] What kinds of financial services do the poor value? What economic activities are the poor engaged in, and what implications does this have for the type of services to be provided? What are existing sources of financial services, and how do the poor use them? What combination of financial instruments\u2014credit, savings, insurance \u2014 are best developed, given specific demand from different types of clients? Do delivery systems (credit union, village banking, group-based lending) take into account the prevailing socioeconomic environments or local organizational systems? What unconventional methods do the poor use to secure loans? Can these collateral substitutes be used within a more formalized banking system? In the lending or granting of public resources, are incentives in place to encourage competitive, sustainable, efficient, and entrepreneurial microfinance institutions? Are regulations in place that govern mutually supportive transactions between the clients (borrowers) and institutions (lenders), such as deposit insurance and contract enforcement? Are prudential regulations, such as accounting practices and reporting requirements, balanced so that they ensure sustainability, good management, and accountability of microfinance institutions without stifling innovation? Would the introduction or expansion of microfinance services in a region be one of the most socially cost-effective ways to alleviate poverty there, given the state of infrastructure and markets, the availability of services, and the existence of other antipoverty and development programs in the region?<\/p>\n<div class=\"dspaceDetails\">\n<p class=\"ifb-desc\"><strong>Year published<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>2003<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"dspaceDetails\">\n<p class=\"ifb-desc\"><strong>Authors<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>International Food Policy Research Institute<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"dspaceDetails\">\n<p><strong>Citation<\/strong><\/p>\n<p class=\"citationDisplay uagb-ifb-desc \" data-identifier =\"10568\/156787\">International Food Policy Research Institute (IFPRI). 2003.

There is scope for better targeting food subsidies, in particular those for rationed cooking oil and sugar, both because reforms in this area are perceived to be far less politically sensitive than adjusting subsidy policies for bread and wheat flour and because higher income groups presently receive a significant percentage of the benefits. Targeting the high-subsidy green ration cards to the poor and the low-subsidy red ration cards to the nonpoor will require identification of both poor and nonpoor households. An International Food Policy Research Institute (IFPRI) research team in Egypt, in collaboration with the Egyptian Ministry of Trade and Supply, developed a proxy means test for targeting ration cards. This paper describes the process of moving from the optimal income-predicting model to the final model that was both administratively and politically feasible. An ex-ante evaluation of the levels of accuracy of the proxy means testing model indicates that the model performs quite well in predicting the needy and nonneedy households. An effective and full implementation of this targeting method would increase the equity in the ration card food subsidy system and, at the same time, lower the total budgetary costs of rationed food subsidies. Moreover, the experience gained under this reform would facilitate targeting future social interventions to reduce and prevent poverty in Egypt.<\/p>\n<div class=\"dspaceDetails\">\n<p class=\"ifb-desc\"><strong>Year published<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>2002<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"dspaceDetails\">\n<p class=\"ifb-desc\"><strong>Authors<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Ahmed, Akhter U.; Bouis, Howarth E.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"dspaceDetails\">\n<p><strong>Citation<\/strong><\/p>\n<p class=\"citationDisplay uagb-ifb-desc \" data-identifier =\"10568\/156762\">Ahmed, Akhter U.; Bouis, Howarth E. 2002.

Per capita consumption decreased for the households during this time and, while not dramatic, it occurred at all points along the distribution. Over the two-year period, the number of households that fell into poverty was over twice as large as the number of households that climbed out of poverty. About two-thirds of overall poverty was chronic (average consumption over time was below the poverty line), and almost half of all poor were always poor. We use quantile regression methods to identify the factors that explain total, chronic, and transitory poverty. While our analysis ably documents the extent of transitory poverty, it does not explain well the determinants of this type of poverty. The predominantly chronic nature of poverty in the sample, and our ability to identify associated characteristics, strengthens the case for targeting antipoverty interventions such as food subsidies.<\/p>\n<div class=\"dspaceDetails\">\n<p class=\"ifb-desc\"><strong>Year published<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>2002<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"dspaceDetails\">\n<p class=\"ifb-desc\"><strong>Authors<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Haddad, Lawrence J.; Ahmed, Akhter U.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"dspaceDetails\">\n<p><strong>Citation<\/strong><\/p>\n<p class=\"citationDisplay uagb-ifb-desc \" data-identifier =\"10568\/155592\">Haddad, Lawrence J.; Ahmed, Akhter U. 2002.

Although it may not encapsulate all dimensions of poverty, the inability of households to obtain access to enough food for an active, healthy life is surely an important component of their poverty. Accordingly, devising an appropriate measure of food security outcomes is useful in order to identify the food insecure, assess the severity of their food shortfall, characterize the nature of their insecurity (for example, seasonal versus chronic), predict who is most at risk of future hunger, monitor changes in circumstances, and assess the impact of interventions. However, obtaining detailed data on food security status\u2014such as 24- hour recall data on caloric intakes\u2014can be time consuming and expensive and require a high level of technical skill both in data collection and analysis. This paper examines whether an alternative indicator, dietary diversity, defined as the number of unique foods consumed over a given period of time, provides information on household food security. It draws on data from 10 countries (India, the Philippines, Mozambique, Mexico, Bangladesh, Egypt, Mali, Malawi, Ghana, and Kenya) that encompass both poor and middle-income countries, rural and urban sectors, data collected in different seasons, and data on calories acquisition obtained using two different methods. ....[D]ietary diversity would appear to show promise as a means of measuring food security and monitoring changes and impact, particularly when resources available for such measurement are scarce.<\/p>\n<div class=\"dspaceDetails\">\n<p class=\"ifb-desc\"><strong>Year published<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>2002<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"dspaceDetails\">\n<p class=\"ifb-desc\"><strong>Authors<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Hoddinott, John F.; Yohannes, Yisehac<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"dspaceDetails\">\n<p><strong>Citation<\/strong><\/p>\n<p class=\"citationDisplay uagb-ifb-desc \" data-identifier =\"10568\/155729\">Hoddinott, John F.; Yohannes, Yisehac. 2002.

It is framed within lessons learned from a five-year IFPRI research program that examined, among other issues, the roles government should play in providing financial services to meet the needs of the poor. Insights presented here are based on a series of detailed household surveys   conducted in nine countries of Africa and Asia: Bangladesh, Cameroon, China, Egypt, Ghana, Madagascar, Malawi, Nepal, and Pakistan.... [The brief asks us to consider these questions:] What kinds of financial services do the poor value? What economic activities are the poor engaged in, and what implications does this have for the type of services to be provided? What are existing sources of financial services, and how do the poor use them?  What combination of financial instruments\u2014credit, savings, insurance \u2014 are best developed, given specific demand from different types of clients? Do delivery systems (credit union, village banking, group-based lending) take into account the prevailing socioeconomic environments or local organizational systems?  What unconventional methods do the poor use to secure loans? Can these   collateral substitutes be used within a more formalized banking system?  In the lending or granting of public resources, are incentives in place to encourage competitive, sustainable, efficient, and entrepreneurial microfinance institutions?  Are regulations in place that govern mutually supportive transactions between the clients (borrowers) and institutions (lenders), such as deposit insurance and contract enforcement?  Are prudential regulations, such as accounting practices and reporting requirements, balanced so that they ensure sustainability, good management, and accountability of microfinance institutions without stifling innovation?

Educated young women are more adversely affected than their male counterparts by the transition to a private-sector-led economy. There is no systematic link between youth unemployment among new entrants and poverty unless it is the head of the household who is unemployed. An economic policy environment that is favorable for labor-intensive, export-oriented industries would help absorb the new entrants into the labor market, and the prospect is particularly good for young female workers. Policymakers should consider a reduction in the female-specific employer mandates (such as the existing provision for a generous maternity leave) that raise the cost of hiring women.<\/p>\n<div class=\"dspaceDetails\">\n<p class=\"ifb-desc\"><strong>Year published<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>2000<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"dspaceDetails\">\n<p class=\"ifb-desc\"><strong>Authors<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Assaad, Ragui; El-Hamidi, Fatma; Ahmed, Akhter U.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"dspaceDetails\">\n<p><strong>Citation<\/strong><\/p>\n<p class=\"citationDisplay uagb-ifb-desc \" data-identifier =\"10568\/156570\">Assaad, Ragui; El-Hamidi, Fatma; Ahmed, Akhter U. 2000.

Las autoridades normativas, pese a haber en focado los programas de poblaci\u00f3n, salud y nutrici\u00f3n en la mujer dentro de su funci\u00f3n reproductiva, la han desatendido como agente de producci\u00f3n. Sin embargo, esa situaci\u00f3n est\u00e1 en proceso de cambio....El Instituto Internacional de Investigaciones sobre Pol\u00edticas Alimentarias (IFPRI) asigna alta prioridad a la investigaci\u00f3n destinada a comprender mejor el papel de la mujer en la agricultura y la seguridad alimentaria. El trabajo del IFPRI en ese campo comenz\u00f3 con una serie de estudios sobre los efectos de la comercializaci\u00f3n agr\u00edtudios en el ingreso de la mujer, el con sumo de alimentos y la nutrici\u00f3n de la fa milia y del ni\u00f1o. Ahora, por medio de un programa de investigaci\u00f3n  multinacional de \"fortalecimiento de la pol\u00edtica alimentaria por  medio del an\u00e1lisis intrafamiliar\", los investigadores del IFPRI  examinan los procesos de adopci\u00f3n de decisiones dentro de la  familia para determinar c\u00f3mo se asignan los recursos en ese medio. Esas investigaciones se hacen con el fin de obtener la  informaci\u00f3n necesaria para el dise\u00f1o y la ejecuci\u00f3n de pol\u00edticas alimentarias m\u00e1s eficaces teniendo encuenta las diferencias existentes entre el hombre y la mujer en lo que respecta al acceso a los recursos productivos y al control ejercido sobre los mismos, al inter\u00e9s en el desarrollo y la seguridad alimentaria y a la respuesta a los incentivos para el desarrollo...\" (Prefacio)<\/p>\n<div class=\"dspaceDetails\">\n<p class=\"ifb-desc\"><strong>Year published<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>2000<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"dspaceDetails\">\n<p class=\"ifb-desc\"><strong>Authors<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Quisumbing, Agnes R.; Brown, Lynn R.; Feldstein, Hilary Sims; Haddad, Lawrence J.; Pe\u00f1a, Christine<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"dspaceDetails\">\n<p><strong>Citation<\/strong><\/p>\n<p class=\"citationDisplay uagb-ifb-desc \" data-identifier =\"10568\/156116\">Quisumbing, Agnes R.; Brown, Lynn R.; Feldstein, Hilary Sims; Haddad, Lawrence J.; Pe\u00f1a, Christine. 2000.
