Lebanon

Lebanon faces a political and economic crisis, with more than half of the population living below the poverty line. Inflation is rampant and access to water and sanitation services, electricity, fuel, and health services have been strained.

The situation has been further exacerbated by the protracted Syrian refugee crisis, the explosions in Beirut’s port in 2020, and the war in Ukraine. With limited options to survive, families in Lebanon are eating fewer meals, consuming less healthy food, and taking out loans, resulting in increasing hunger.
