Focus Areas
Enhancing food security, strengthening resilience, and alleviating poverty
Supporting global food systems to improve food security and spur sustainable economic growth is one of RTI’s core areas of expertise. We work with and through local partners to empower all market actors, facilitate access to markets and finance, reduce undernutrition, and strengthen resilience to shocks and stresses.
Specializing in project management, private sector engagement, capacity building, policy and political economy analysis, innovation and strategic analytics, and monitoring, evaluation, research, learning, and adapting (MERLA), we are helping partner countries catalyze agriculture-led economic growth. Working with all actors throughout the market system, from farmers to government officials, our work helps create job opportunities, increase incomes, and promote inclusive access to safe, nutritious food.
