Regional Focus on the Intergovernmental Authority on Development (IGAD) Member States 2024

The IGAD Regional Focus of the 2024 Global Report on Food Crises is the result of a collaboration between the Food Security Information Network (FSIN) and the Intergovernmental Authority on Development (IGAD), a regional economic community that forms one of the building blocks of the African Union. It provides a comprehensive assessment of acute food insecurity and malnutrition in the eight IGAD countries as well as trends over time, key drivers and populations of highest concern based on a rigorous methodology. It also presents available data and information on forcibly displaced populations and includes a spotlight on the conflict in Sudan and a focus on pastoralism, deep-diving into important issues for the region.

Global Food and Nutrition Security

The report serves as a key reference for governments, policymakers, and development and humanitarian actors in their efforts to tackle the root causes of food crises in the region.

It is a by-product of the annual Global Report on Food Crises (GRFC), which is produced by FSIN in support of the Global Network Against Food Crisis (GNAFC).
