Food Prices: Where next?

Nominees Breakfast

Tuesday 17 June 2008 08:00 to 09:15

Location

Chatham House, London

Participants

Alexander Evans, Non-resident Fellow, Center on International Cooperation, New York University, and author of the Chatham House Briefing Paper 'Rising Food Prices: Drivers and Implications for Development'

Type: Fee-paying or special invitation events

Recent months have seen rapidly mounting concern over global food prices, which have risen 83 per cent over the last three years. This discussion will focus on the outlook over the medium to longer term, examine whether recent price increases are likely to be sustained, and explore what policy actions are under consideration in agriculture, trade and on the demand side.

This event is strictly by invitation only.

To enable as open a debate as possible, this event will be held under the Chatham House Rule
