On 27 October 2020, Grow Asia - in partnership with the ASEAN Secretariat, World Economic Forum and the International Fund for Agricultural Development - convened a Virtual Consultation towards a Multi-Sectoral ASEAN Response to COVID-19’s Impact on Regional Food Systems with over 140 participants from the public sector, private sector, donor, civil society, and farmer organizations.

Four multi-stakeholder Working Groups presented their findings and recommendations around:

• Rural Logistics
• Mobile Money
• Digital Marketing Platforms
• Digital Enabling Environment

This summary document captures the discussions and highlights from each Working Group, as an input to the ASEAN Comprehensive Recovery Framework and its Implementation Plan, which will be submitted to leaders at the 37th ASEAN Summit in November.
