The consequences of the conflict in the Middle East are falling on people who do not have the margins to cope.
WFP's @CarlSkau explains how the price of fuel, fertilizers and supply chain disruptions could lead to a spike in global hunger. ⤵️

Shocking need-to-know findings.
Most of the 4.9 million children who died in 2024 could have been saved.
100,000 died directly from severe acute malnutrition.
Malnutrition was an underlying cause for many children who died of other conditions.

Mozambique is one of the most climate-vulnerable countries in the world.
Our latest article breaks down why, from its geography and fragile infrastructure to deep socioeconomic pressures and intensifying climate shocks.
But this isn’t just about exposure. It’s about a system that forces communities to rebuild, again and again.
That’s exactly what our documentary, Washed Away: On the Trail of the Limpopo, captures on the ground.
Read the full piece, then watch the documentary to see what climate vulnerability really looks like in Mozambique.

The impact of conflict ripples through our food systems - and families will feel it first.
Roughly 45 million more people could be pushed into acute hunger this year if conflict in the Middle East persists.
Without an adequately funded humanitarian response, it could spell catastrophe for millions already on the edge. ow.ly/OKMj50YvlUI

🟡Empty desks in classrooms are not just absence, they are futures at risk.
Today, we remember what’s at stake and what’s possible when children are nourished to learn, grow, and dream.

🇧🇮🌍 Asterie Ntahonvakiye, a farmer in Burundi, shows how bigger harvests can empower young women. 🌱 Women produce up to 80% of Africa’s food, yet lack equal access. With the same opportunities, yields could rise 20–30% . @oneacrefund #IWD2026 #YearoftheWomanFarmer

Beyond the immediate food security impacts in the region, the conflict in the #MiddleEast is causing severe global supply chain disruptions.
Dual chokepoints are forcing shipping diversions, raising costs and delaying aid.

Rising food and fuel prices linked to the escalation of the conflict in the Middle East risk deepening hunger in the region and beyond.
We need to keep vital humanitarian supplies moving at a critical time.

Millions of families are struggling to find enough food, and nearly a million people are already facing severe hunger.
Without urgent support, families under growing pressure could be pushed to the brink.
