As the conflict in Ukraine drags on, there have been major disruptions to global commodity markets—notably energy and food. These impacts are affecting the ability of western nations to sustain effective sanctions against Russia, the ability of Ukraine to provide basic services for its population and the cost of essential food and energy products for vulnerable populations around the world. In this panel, experts from the School of Global Policy and Strategy, The Economist and The New York Times will comment on current and future prospects for energy and food supplies, along with what the crisis means for efforts to address other looming global challenges such as climate change.
