Summary
Conflict is the main driver of hunger and starvation in conflict-affected countries. Armed conflicts disrupt food production and distribution, displace populations and destroy livelihoods. They also undermine coping mechanisms, including the distribution of humanitarian assistance, increasing community vulnerability to hunger and malnutrition. Conversely, food insecurity may increase tensions and violence in communities.
