In developing countries, governance of public sector projects is becoming increasingly more complex due to the varying nature of stakeholders and their expectations from the government to address their interest. As a result, policymakers and sponsoring agencies are more focusing on stakeholder management to ensure smooth execution, high performance and achieving desired outcomes. This study has conducted a systematic appraisal of the relevant literature to explore the thematic discussions on the role of project governance and stakeholder management in public sector infrastructure projects of Pakistan. The analysis reveals that project governance and stakeholder management is not widely been discussed in the Pakistan specific studies. Therefore, this research proposes project governance and stakeholder management as key concerns of government decision-making strategies.

What accounts for the persistence of hunger and undernutrition in political and administrative systems which might be otherwise sensitive to the risk of food price volatility and market failure? If pre-empting food price volatility has a political constituency why is there not a similar constituency for preventing vulnerability to hunger? The policy response to globally-driven food price volatility in Pakistan was largely successful in achieving its proximate goals, and price spirals and market shortages in 2008 were aberrations from which lessons were drawn effectively. Research for the Life in a Time of Food Price Volatility project shows that the food economy of the poorest is relatively insulated from price fluctuations, and vulnerability to hunger is mostly driven by idiosyncratic shocks. The poorest often operate beneath the market, or at the lowest rung of a highly segmented market, and their expectations with respect to rights and entitlements to food correspond with their prevailing sources of informal social support.
