3.3. Food Security and Livelihoods (FSL)
Summary
Sudan’s severe acute food insecurity is primarily driven by escalating conflict and massive displacements, which cause economic, social, physiological, and psychological stresses. These disruptions are compounded by a macroeconomic crisis characterized by high inflation, currency depreciation, reduced agricultural output, rising food prices and input costs. Climatic shocks, including droughts, flooding, pest infestation, and animal diseases, worsen the situation.
