Political instability, including civil wars and political violence, can disrupt agricultural production, distribution, and access to food, leading to food insecurity.

Conflict often leads to displacement of farmers, destruction of crops and infrastructure, and disruption of supply chains, resulting in reduced access to farmland and agricultural production.

Food insecurity during conflict can lead to malnutrition, stunted growth, and increased vulnerability to diseases, particularly among vulnerable populations such as women and children.

Conflict can disrupt supply chains, transportation networks, and market systems, making it difficult for food to reach those who need it, leading to food shortages and increased prices.

Investing in peacebuilding and conflict resolution efforts can help address the root causes of conflict, create a more stable environment for agricultural production, and improve food security.

Conflict can disrupt production, distribution, and market systems, leading to reduced supply and increased demand, resulting in higher food prices.

The presence of natural resources, such as minerals or oil, can fuel conflict and increase competition for control over these resources, leading to displacement, disruption of agricultural production, and food insecurity.

Conflict can lead to disruptions in food production, processing, and distribution systems, resulting in compromised food quality and safety, increasing the risk of foodborne illnesses and malnutrition.

Food insecurity in conflict-affected regions can lead to severe food shortages, malnutrition, and increased risk of famine, particularly among vulnerable populations.

Conflict can disrupt storage and preservation systems, leading to spoilage and loss of food, reducing the availability of food for consumption.

Providing humanitarian aid, including food assistance, can help address immediate food needs and prevent further deterioration of food security in conflict-affected regions.

Conflict can lead to shifts in food consumption patterns, with people consuming less nutritious and more affordable food options due to limited access to diverse and nutritious food sources.

The presence of natural resources, such as minerals or oil, can fuel conflict and increase competition for control over these resources, leading to displacement, disruption of agricultural production, and food insecurity.

Conflict in urban areas can disrupt food supply chains, markets, and infrastructure, leading to heightened food insecurity, particularly among vulnerable populations such as the urban poor.

Investing in peacebuilding and conflict resolution efforts can help address the root causes of conflict, create a more stable environment for agricultural production, and improve food security.
