However, bidirectional food remitting -- its drivers, dimensions and impacts -- is an underdeveloped research and policy area. This report therefore reviews the current state of knowledge about food remittances in Africa and aims to make a number of contributions to the study of the relationship between migration and food security.Migration policy series ;Number 72.Food securityAfricaFood security338.195Crush Jonathan1140931Caesar MaryMiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910826497703321Food remittances4073526UNINA
