About this ebook

Hunger Hotspots investigates why, despite global agricultural abundance, extreme food insecurity persists in vulnerable regions, focusing on the Sahel, Yemen, and Afghanistan. This book provides a detailed analysis of these humanitarian crises, scrutinizing current interventions and highlighting challenges to long-term food security. It reveals that hunger isn't merely a production issue, but is deeply entwined with environmental, political, and socio-economic factors, such as how climate change impacts agricultural yields, or how conflict and political instability disrupt food distribution. The book takes a holistic approach, moving beyond short-term humanitarian aid to tackle underlying structural issues. It begins by establishing a historical context for each region, tracing the roots of food insecurity. Subsequent chapters delve into specific drivers of food insecurity in the Sahel, Yemen, and Afghanistan, analyzing local and international responses. The book emphasizes the interconnectedness of environmental, political, and socio-economic factors, highlighting that sustainable development and conflict resolution are vital for creating resilient and equitable food systems.
