# The Resilience of Food Security to Climate Shocks

> **NIH NIH R03** · UNIV OF NORTH CAROLINA CHAPEL HILL · 2022 · $92,298

## Abstract

PROJECT SUMMARY
This project will measure the vulnerability and resilience of household food security to climate shocks in
Nigeria, Ethiopia, Tanzania and Malawi. We will link longitudinal data on food security from approximately 4000
households per country, observed at 3-4 time points, to newly-available, very-high-resolution data on climate
exposures. We will then use these data to investigate household vulnerability and resilience to climate shocks
by examining both immediate and medium-term effects of climate anomalies on multiple measures of food
security across various subpopulations. This research will represent the first multi-country investigation of
vulnerability and resilience of food security to climate shocks, focusing on four countries where these concerns
are paramount.
