Food security professionals increasing realize that they must use communications strategically for their work to have a maximum impact. While most organizations have invested heavily in food security analysis and research, many still need to enhance their communications to ensure their findings reach their intended users and action is taken. This toolkit is geared to helping food security professionals develop a communication strategy and communicate more effectively with their target audiences. Specific sections of the toolkit focus on policy makers and the media, because of the important role they play in implementing and influencing food security policies. The toolkit also includes ready-made templates and dozens of tips and tricks distilled from many years of experience. While aimed at professionals working in food security related fields, the lessons in this toolkit can easily be applied to many other fields. This toolkit was prepared as part of the EC-FAO Programme on “Linking Information and Decision Making to Improve Food Security” which is funded by the European Union and implemented by the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations.
