Description: The flow of food from producer to consumer is vulnerable to shocks at many stages of its journey, but the resilience of this flow to shocks has rarely been studied, especially in comparison to the number of studies that have looked at production shocks. This project contributes to 2021 edition of the FAO flagship publication The State of Food and Agriculture (SOFA), on building resilient food systems for food security and nutrition. It developed and demonstrated a spatial workflow and resilience metrics to analyse transport network structure in the context of national food transport network resilience. /
