Chain Reaction: Ensuring the Resilience of Food Supply Chains in Israel During Emergencies

In recent years, global supply chains have been under increasing challenge, which was manifested, among other things, during the Corona epidemic and with the outbreak of the war in Ukraine. These are added to the challenges arising from long-term geopolitical changes, including de-globalization processes as a result of tensions between the superpowers and global competition for resources (with an emphasis on critical minerals for advanced industries). Combining the fundamental challenges of the global supply chains with the climate challenge may create a "perfect storm" that will lead to instability and damage to national security, especially in countries like Israel, which depend to a greater extent on the global supply chains, which are particularly exposed to the consequences of climate change and which face additional significant challenges to their national resilience.
