Instability & Poverty
The widespread effects of the unprecedented economic crisis that overtook Sri Lanka in 2022 are still heavily felt across the country. Over a quarter of the population is now estimated to live below the poverty line, which hurts their access sufficient, nutritious food.
The country also faces significant threats from climate risks. Weather extremes such as droughts, floods and landslides are heightening food and nutrition insecurity, posing risks to people’s health and diminishing agricultural yields.
You can make a difference. By understanding issues, learning how to civically engage, and joining the movement to end global hunger for good.
