Summary
This report presents an overview on the impact of the global food crisis on the Asia Pacific region, with a focus on the consequences on food security, nutrition, and the capacity of key actors to respond. The protracted conflict in Ukraine and the global food crisis are exerting substantial impacts on food security and nutrition in countries across the Asia Pacific region. Millions more people have become acutely food-insecure in the past year. The report includes an analysis of the driving forces, and the underlying factors which make different countries in the region more vulnerable to these shocks. The report also draws on these findings to present a series of recommendations for responding to the crisis.
