Global food insecurity
よくある質問
According to the 2026 Global Report on Food Crises, acute food insecurity has reached staggering levels, with the number of people affected more than doubling since 2016. Currently, 266 million people across 47 countries are facing high levels of food insecurity, categorized as Phase 3 or higher on the IPC scale. This represents nearly 23 percent of the population in the analyzed regions, signaling a massive structural failure rather than a temporary setback.
The global hunger crisis is becoming increasingly concentrated, with two-thirds of the total affected population—approximately 177 million people—residing in just ten countries. The crisis is becoming deeply entrenched in specific conflict-hit zones, most notably the Democratic Republic of the Congo and Nigeria. These regions highlight how global hunger is no longer just widespread but is becoming a permanent fixture in specific high-stress areas.
The trajectory of global food security over the last decade indicates that the system is under a level of stress not seen in a lifetime. Rather than a series of isolated bad years, the data suggests a long-term structural food failure. Since 2016, the number of individuals facing acute food insecurity on the IPC scale has doubled, showing that the global food system is struggling to recover from persistent and intensifying pressures.
