The Indonesian government developed the Food Estate program as one of the spearheads in a food security strategy during the COVID-19 pandemic. The Food Estate concept is a food development on a wide scale carried out in an integrated manner, including agriculture, plantations, and livestock in an area. This study uses descriptive and qualitative approaches to explain and analyze research problems. Data collection was obtained from the literature study regarding previous research and expert opinion. Overall, food estate development can increase per capita income and reduce the percentage of income for daily food needs, which is essentially very important if the government is to have more policy options in the event of a global food crisis due to COVID-19. However, there should be an improvement in the smooth distribution so that there is no longer a shortage of food, which impacts hoarding for consumer groups, causing shortages for other groups. The COVID-19 pandemic, of course, has taught the relationship between the health of the environmental system and the food system. Therefore, the synergy between food, ecological systems, and economic systems is an obligation.

Zimbabwe has faced persistent droughts from around year 1990 to date posing a structural food security challenge to the populace. Recently, the government of Zimbabwe introduced a blue print to spearhead and map sustainable balance in tapping value from the available natural and man-made resources in the country. This is known as the Zimbabwe Agenda for Sustainable Socio-economic Transformation Programme (Zim Asset). Amongst its prospects, agriculture and nutrition has been reckoned as a sustainable cluster for economic development. This study was undertaken one and half years after the implementation of Zim Asset as an evaluation mechanism on the successes and challenges faced in transforming the Zimbabwean economy with specific reference to the Food and Nutrition Cluster. The study employed both post positivism and interpretivism philosophies applying quantitative and qualitative approaches in gathering research data. The research instruments included documentary evidence, face to face in-depth interviews and focus groups. The in-depth interviews explored issues to do with resources allocation in line with the Zim Asset agriculture sustenance objectives. Focus was therefore, on the four Ministries supporting the Food and Nutrition Cluster. Eighty percent of the respondents reported that the economic blue print has not made any significant strides in improving the country’s agricultural performance and food security since the inception of Zim Asset in October 2013. It was noted that the country continued to import maize from Zambia and other countries in the region. The major reason for its lack of success was due to the unavailability of resources to support the programme and the fact that land was allocated to unproductive and cell phone farmers. There was consensus that land audit and recapitalisation of the agriculture sector were critical in achieving the desired outcomes. The study recommends that the programme be adequately funded, so that the country can become self-sufficient.

The research data were collected through interviews, documentation, and literature study, which then were analyzed descriptively. This study summed up that the consultative model would guarantee more toward the support of institutional design in the collaboration of religious de-radicalization policy in Indonesia; to protect the unity of the nation on one hand, and optimize the role of Pondok pesantren on the other hand.

Food insecurity is a global issue that persists at various scales and intensity. It is linked to irregularity or uncertainty of food, water and fuel and can develop under the influence of multiple factors. Food availability, accessibility, consumption and stability are the four broad dimensions of food security. This paper analyses the relationship between these four dimensions and food insecurity for 33 districts in Rajasthan, India, using the data collected from the published documents, periodicals and websites of the government or other authentic sources. To analyse the link between these four dimensions, several indicators were taken into consideration. The collected data was used to rank the districts based on their level of food insecurity. Thus, the results include categorization of the districts into four zones based on the values of the variables. The results are presented through maps, which show the spatial distribution of food insecurity. It can be concluded, that the districts of Banswara, Dungarpur, Udaipur, Bharatpur, Rajsamand, Dhaulpur and Jalore have a very high level of food insecurity.

National Food Security

Indonesia is one of the largest agricultural countries in Southeast Asia, but it is also struggling with food security issues. The government's challenge is to ensure that domestic food needs are fulfilled. The covid-19 pandemic exacerbated this challenge, where countries faced the threat of food shortages due to limited movement of goods. Thus, Indonesia should focus on increasing the production and productivity of strategic food commodities. One of the alternative solutions is through the transmigration program. This research focused on how the transmigration program can contribute to food security. The study was carried out through a descriptive qualitative method. The result shows that transmigration contributes to food security because of its similarity to the food production process. However, this program faces five main challenges to support food security. Therefore, this study shows several pre-conditions that the government needs to fulfill to overcome these challenges.

The increase in the Covid-19 second wave in Indonesia has made the government implement a stricter policy to implement Community Activity Restrictions (PPKM). This activity aims to provide actionable solutions to maintain family food security through the community movement to grow vegetables. The method used in this activity is the Participatory Rural Appraisal (PRA) method which begins with FGD, counseling, and field practice. The activity implementer can become a facilitator and directly facilitate the community carrying out activities. The empowerment program was carried out in Kepuharjo Village, Malang Regency, with the main target being housewives. As a result of this activity, participants who attended the FGD and the facilitator decided to create a community movement in independent vegetable growing to stay productive during the pandemic. Community movement was conducted for two weeks, during which the activity implementation team provided all materials, planting media, and seeds. During the two weeks running, 53 housewives grew vegetables independently. Based on the evaluation results, this activity is very effective and efficient for household food fulfillment. Ninety-seven percent of homemakers say that they can increase their food needs with this movement, so they don't have to buy. Of course, it has an impact on saving household expenses. As many as 90 percent of homemakers do this activity and repeat it after harvest. So that the continuity of this activity can run well, besides decreasing spending, this activity can also improve health by producing healthier vegetables.

The escalating food demand by a growing and increasingly affluent global population is placing unprecedented pressure on the limited land and water resources of the planet, underpinning concerns over global food security and its sensitivity to shocks arising from environmental fluctuations, trade policies, and market volatility. Here, we use country-specific demographic records along with food production and trade data for the past 25 y to evaluate the stability and reactivity of the relationship between population dynamics and food availability. We develop a framework for the assessment of the resilience and the reactivity of the coupled population–food system and suggest that over the past two decades both its sensitivity to external perturbations and susceptibility to instability have increased.

The study presents views of Ukrainian and foreign authors on the circumstances that led to the split of the OUN in 1940, pays attention to the so-called "betrayals" in the nationalist environment, carried out the classification of the causes of the crisis in the underground organization, provides promising areas of research problems. There are two groups of priority reasons for the split of the OUN in 1940: internal and external. From the first group, some researchers have singled out the following factors: tactical (Stepan Lenkavskyi, Petro Mirchuk, Volodymyr Kosyk, Mykhailo Koval, Ryszard Torzecki, etc.), psychological (Zenon Pelenskyi, Ivan Patryliak) and personal (Zynovii Knysh, Oleksandr Ischuk) character. External causes of the split were due to German (Anatolii Kentii) or Soviet (Ihor Havryliv) factors. In the historical literature, there is no unambiguous answer to the question: was there betrayal in the OUN? Right-wing professor Stanislav Kulchytskyi, who was in charge of a historical working group at the Government Commission for the Study of the OUN and UPA, stated there was no betrayal by Yevhen Konovalets' inner circle. It is necessary to talk about the betrayal of individual OUN members, such as Roman Baranovskyi. It is alleged that due to the absence of reliable historical sources and its politicization has no prospects of study question about the so-called «Archive of Senyk». Nevertheless, historians should continue exploring the relationship between the OUN Regional Executive and the Ukrainian Nationalist Leadership in 1929–1940. It is emphasized that in the context of Ukrainian national memory policy, historians' important task is a deep analysis of the lessons of the OUN split 1940. After all, the question is very relevant to today's consolidation and unity not only nationalist structures but also all national-state one's forces.
