Mediation And Moderation Roles Of Resilience Capacity In The Shock-food-security Nexus In Northern Ghana
This paper examines how resilience capacity mediates or moderates the relationship between weather shocks and household food security based on two waves of farm household survey and satellite-based weather data in northern Ghana and applying econometric models. Results show that resilience capacity moderate or mediates the negative effects of heat stress and drought on food security.
