In 2011, the International Food Policy Research Institute (IFPRI) collected data for the final round of a panel survey to
evaluate how the resettlement project affected the food security of program participants in the long term. Although
programs like the CBRLDP appear in other African countries, few quantitative evaluations measure the short- or longterm
impact of resettlement policies. However, great lessons can be learned from ongoing research on this matter in
terms of the roles of land reform and migration in improving food security in sub-Saharan Africa.
