Summary
Economic shocks, the effects of climate change and unemployment in vulnerable communities have resulted in the number of food-insecure people increasing from 23 percent in 2022 to 30 percent in 2023. In late September, WFP responded within 3 days to a refugee crisis with more than 101,000 refugees arriving in Armenia over a span of 10 days. WFP, working with ministries, international organizations and communities, scaled up climate-friendly energy solutions, food value chains, and promoted healthy diets as part of a comprehensive approach to food system support in Armenia while delivering targeted support to the national social protection system. WFP reached nearly 70,000 beneficiaries.
