The private sector -\u00ad from smallholder farmers to multinational corporations \u00ad- are critical in ensuring all people, at all times, have physical and economic access to sufficient, safe and nutritious food to meet their dietary needs and food preferences for an active and healthy life. Understanding the enabling legal, policy and regulatory environment to do this is critical. Over the last decade, tens of millions of hectares of land in the Global South has been sold or leased to foreign investors, with Africa playing a central role. Many governments are optimistic about how this may contribute to improved livelihoods and food security. On the other hand, non\u00adgovernmental organizations are pessimistic and suggest these changes foster inequalities and harm livelihoods.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/carleton.ca\/bgins\/logan-cochrane-assistant-professor\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Dr. Logan Cochrane<\/a> at 杏吧原创 University (Global and International Studies) and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.unbc.ca\/international-studies-graduate-program\/dr-nathan-andrews\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Dr. Nathan Andrews<\/a> at the University of Northern British Columbia (Global and International Studies) will work to advance our understanding of how investment, law, policy and regulation interact with livelihoods, food security and inequalities. Specifically, they will compare cases of failed, contested and successful foreign investments in Ethiopia and Ghana. This research will provide evidence based on practice, as opposed to existing frameworks based on theory, to inform the development of appropriate enabling environments. The right laws, policies and regulation will strengthen food security, improve livelihoods and promote economic growth for all. In order to share the findings and promote the recommendations, academic articles will be translated into national languages to broaden the reach of findings, and these will be made freely available. They will also work with national governments and stakeholders to ensure the findings inform future decision making within the countries of study, and beyond.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Institute of African Studies congratulates Dr. Cochrane and Dr. Andrew for being granted an Insight Development Grant from SSHRC.
