Hello everyone,
Evidence Aid's latest newsletter is now available here: https://evidenceaid.org/evidence-aid-newsletter-31-january-2024/
This month we are highlighting a humanitarian crisis affecting millions of people globally: food insecurity and malnutrition, particularly among displaced populations and refugees. The recent conflict in Gaza has led the city’s entire population – around 2.3 million – to face crisis levels of hunger (1 below), while more than 25 million people in the Democratic Republic of Congo face emergency levels of food insecurity (2 below). In Yemen, one of the world’s most food-insecure countries, 17 million people face food insecurity, particularly children and pregnant women (3 below). As such, this month’s newsletter links to several relevant Evidence Aid summaries about food security interventions for refugees, nutrition interventions for women and children in conflict settings, and treatment and management of acute malnutrition in low- and middle-income countries.
