Hunger in a heating world: how the climate crisis is fuelling hunger in an already hungry world

This brief focuses on how climate change acts as a threat multiplier, worsening the existing risks and vulnerabilities to hunger for already disadvantaged people, particularly women, agricultural workers, and small-scale farmers. It explores major climatic events across seven regions where people are being worst affected: Asia’s typhoons, East Africa’s drought, South Africa’s cyclones, the Sahel’s drought, Latin America's dry corridor, the Pacific sea-level rise, and water scarcity in the Euphrates and Tigris River basins.
