The 2023 Near East and North Africa Regional Overview of Food Security and Nutrition comes at a critical juncture as several shocks have hit the region in recent years, including the COVID-19 pandemic and the war in Ukraine. In 2022, international and domestic food and fertilizer prices hit record highs. Moreover, extreme weather events and droughts reduced yields in several wheat-producer countries in the region. The Overview provides an update on the progress made in the Arab States towards Sustainable Development Goal (SDG) 2 targets related to hunger, food security and nutrition, as well as the progress made towards the 2025 global nutrition targets set by the World Health Assembly (WHA).
