The High Level Panel of Experts on Food Security and Nutrition (HLPE-FSN) is the science-policy interface of the CFS. The HLPE-FSN is composed of a Steering Committee of 15 internationally recognized experts in a variety of food security and nutrition related fields, project teams selected to analyze/report on specific issues and a Secretariat, hosted by FAO.
The HLPE-FSN aims to facilitate policy debates and inform policy-making by providing independent, comprehensive and evidence-based analysis and advice through reports, issues papers and identification of critical and emerging issues, at the request of CFS.
