Hello Winnie!

As far as I’m aware, it’s nowadys the majoritarian view among people who study development aid, that food relief is among the least effective forms of it. For example Nunn and Qian (2014) found that US food aid increased conflict intensity.

So why do you think it’s a more effective form of aid than the more commonly advocated forms, such as supporting public infrastructure or funding basic income programs?
