Sudan: Acute Food Insecurity Projection Update October – December 2020

Flooding, rampant inflation, political instability and tribal clashes have triggered higher levels of acute food insecurity during the period of October – December 2020, compared to what had been forecasted for the same period in the last projection analysis conducted in June 2020. During the projection update of October – December 2020, an estimated 7.1 million people, representing 16% of the total analysed population, are expected to face high levels of acute food insecurity (IPC Phase 3 or above) through December 2020 and are in need of urgent action to save lives, protect livelihoods and reduce food consumption gaps.
