Food Security
Making sure no family goes hungry, even in the middle of crisis.
- Our Approach
Hunger Is a Crisis We Can Prevent
Conflict, climate shocks and economic collapse are pushing more families than ever into hunger, with acute food insecurity now affecting hundreds of millions of people worldwide. Behind every statistic is a family forced to choose between eating and other basic needs and children whose growth and health are put at risk by malnutrition during their most critical years.
Our Food Security programs respond on two fronts. In the middle of a crisis, we deliver emergency food assistance and treat malnutrition directly, especially in children under five, through therapeutic feeding and nutrition support. Where markets are still functioning, we favor cash and voucher assistance over food handouts, giving families the dignity to choose what their household actually needs while supporting the local economy at the same time.
Beyond emergency response, we work with communities to build longer-term food security helping farming households restore damaged land and crops, strengthening local food markets, and building resilience against future climate shocks and disruptions. Because lasting food security means a community can withstand the next crisis, not just survive this one.
