In 2025, food insecurity remained a significant challenge, driven by a prolonged economic downturn characterized by rising inflation, reduced public resources and persistent fuel shortages. Increasing restrictions on access to international markets further constrained the availability of essential goods — including food — while domestic food production continued to decline due to limited access to critical agricultural inputs and services, low investment in the sector, and ongoing difficulties in mobilizing international development financing. The year 2025 was marked by heightened humanitarian needs, stemming from multiple disasters that struck at the end of 2024 and required sustained recovery efforts throughout the year, as well as a late-2025 Hurricane Melissa, which further compounded existing vulnerabilities. In this challenging context, the World Food Programme (WFP) broadened the scope of its food and nutrition assistance, targeting crisis-affected communities as well as economically and nutritionally vulnerable groups to help safeguard food security and protect nutritional status.
