Ramadan amid the specter of food security concerns

Ramadan amid the specter of food security concerns Zaid M. Belbagi April 23, 2021 22:54 People wait for the call to prayer before they eat their Iftar meal in a damaged neighborhood, Atarib, Aleppo district, Syria, May 7, 2020. (Reuters) Short Url https://arab.news/4kr7m Despite being a month of fasting, Ramadan is just as much a celebration of food. Across the Arab world, it is a time of increased food sales as families get together to break bread. This year, however, the holy month has served to accentuate the very real food crisis that is faced by countries across the region. According to the World Food Programme (WFP), 64 million people in the Arab world do not have enough food to be healthy and this is not restricted to conflict zones. Across the region, rising populations, diminishing water resources and a worsening climate have made the issue of food security paramount.
