LUANDA, (CAJ News) – MORE people than ever in the last 15 years are food insecure in Southern Africa.
The number has risen to 51,3 million, according to findings by the Southern African Development Community (SADC) Regional Vulnerability Assessment and Analysis Programme (RVAA).
It is the highest figure recorded by the programme since inception in 2006.
The latest figure comes as the coronavirus (COVID-19) and the subsequent lockdowns continue having a disastrous impact on food and nutrition security in Southern Africa.
“This figure (nonetheless) does not fully factor in the impacts of COVID-19,” SADC RVAA stated from Angola.
The agency said based on the available data, the COVID-19 pandemic had a limited impact on food production.
