This blog is the third in a series that highlights insights from research for development policies and practice, supported by the Knowledge for Change Program (KCP). 
One of the most crucial benefits of empirical research is that it helps us learn from the past, so that we won’t repeat the same policy mistakes again. The Covid-19 pandemic initially appeared to be a global health crisis, but very quickly, it morphed into a full-blown economic crisis that has detrimental impacts on people’s ordinary daily routines, such as purchasing and securing food. It is estimated that the pandemic may have doubled the number of people facing severe food insecurity by the end of 2020.
