Ready for anything: how Anticipatory Action is saving lives
Bern — Climate extremes are a key driver of food insecurity. More frequent and intense floods, droughts and storms account for up to 90 per cent of hazards worldwide. At the same time, the climate crisis is intersecting with and exacerbating other drivers of hunger, including conflict and economic downturns. Traditional humanitarian response systems need to evolve from crisis response to forward-looking risk management, and the SDC-co-funded World Food Programme's Anticipatory Action (AA) is one way to achieve this.
