IFPRI conducted a series of two-day workshops on testing and refining the FSS-PNG. These workshops introduced the FSS-PNG and provided an opportunity for participants to collaborate on the further development of the tool. Topics included food security analysis, conducting microsimulations, demonstrations of the types of scenarios the FSS-PNG can simulate food security outcomes for, and identifying areas where the FSS-PNG could be improved. Participants were also afforded time to conduct semi-independent policy analysis using the tool. At the end of the two days participants presented examples of policy analysis using the FSS-PNG and discussed areas of improvement/refinement for the tool.
