Hunger in Africa Worsens
Sub-Saharan Africa is facing a severe hunger crisis, with 7 out of 8 countries in the region listed among the nations with a concerning situation on the Global Hunger Index, according to reports released ahead of World Food Day. Since 2018, the situation has worsened due to armed conflicts, a decline in humanitarian aid funding, and increased pressures on food security. The index has registered its first rise since 2018, with 266 million people across 47 countries experiencing high levels of food insecurity, driven by conflicts, drought, and rising food prices, while aid funding has decreased by 59% between 2022 and 2025.
