Uma Luta Incessante No Sul De Angola: SWAER-II ALÍVIO EM MEIO À INSEGURANÇA ALIMENTAR
Carolina é mãe, uma das muitas que, no contexto de emergência, tem trabalhado para contornar a situação desafiadora em que se encontra. Aos 42 anos e com seus cinco filhos, vive na comunidade de Bata-Bata, município Humpata na Huíla. No curto tempo chuvoso que é registado no Sul, Carolina trabalha na sua pequena lavra, e no tempo seco, que é a maior parte do período sazonal, ela vai fazendo biscates para obter o que dar de comer para os seus filhos.

Price Shocks: Economic gains masking a growing hunger and malnutrition crisis
World Vision's annual price survey analyses global food prices over the past three years.

This year's findings continue to underscore the uneven recovery from the socioeconomic shocks from COVID-19, inflation, and extreme weather and indicates a disparity of food prices, both in the current cost of the basket of 10 common food items and in the year-on-year comparisons. We provide insight into the year-on-year changes and share recommendations on mitigation for various audiences.
