A critical warning from the UN agency highlights how severe funding gaps are now putting at risk the limited but hard-won improvements in global food security. With resources falling short, the fragile gains made in recent years could unravel, leaving vulnerable populations facing renewed hunger and instability. Experts emphasize the need for urgent financial support to prevent a backslide in efforts to combat malnutrition and ensure sustainable access to food. The alert underscores the delicate balance between progress and crisis in one of the world’s most pressing humanitarian challenges.


The UN agency says funding shortages threaten to reverse 'modest and fragile' progress on food security.
