This learning module is part of a broader joint effort of international agencies, experts and practitioners to develop a curriculum on "Agricultural Risk Assessment and Management for Food Security in Developing Countries". A curriculum outline was developed after a broad consultation led by IFAD and FAO in Rome in July 2015, and the Platform for Agricultural Risk Management (PARM/IFAD) has supported the development of this module that corresponds with module 3 of the curriculum1 . Objectives: The main objective of this course module is to familiarize the learner with a vast array of tools potentially applicable for agricultural risk management by providing the basic knowledge of each with respect to their content, pros and cons, and suitability in given specific risk situations. Target Audience: Based on the type of functions performed and the level of involvement at the micro, meso and macro levels of the principal stakeholders, a potential target audience for this informative technical e-learning course is mostly policy makers dealing with risk program development and implementation. There is a need for government participation as they are likely to play an important role in a broader strategy involved in tools such as CSA, non-farm diversification, assets based strategies, contract farming, food grain reserves, disaster assistance programs, social protection, safety nets, etc.
