Chad currently suffers from widespread food insecurity. A majority of the population of Chad now suffers some form of malnutrition. 87% of its population lives below the poverty line. Because the country is arid, landlocked, and prone to droughts, many Chadians struggle to meet their daily nutritional needs. While international aid into the country has brought some relief, the situation in Chad remains severe due to broader famine in the Sahel region. The World Food Programme has declared a state of emergency in the region since early 2018, stating that, “...adding to the poverty, food insecurity and malnutrition which already affects [the nations of the Sahel] to varying degrees, drought, failed harvests and the high prices of staple foods have hastened the arrival of this year’s ‘lean se

| - Chad actualmente sufre una amplia inseguridad alimentaria. La mayor parte de su población padece de algún tipo de malnutrición. El 87% de la población vive por debajo de la línea de pobreza. Debido a que es un país árido, carente de costas y propenso a sequías sus ciudadanos luchan por cubrir sus necesidades nutricionales diarias. Si bien la ayuda internacional ha dado algo de alivio al país africano, la situación sigue siendo grave debido a una hambruna más amplia en la región del Sahel. El Programa Mundial de Alimentos ha declarado un estado de emergencia en la región desde inicios de 2018, sosteniendo que, "... sumado a la pobreza, inseguridad alimentaria y desnutrición que ya afecta [a las naciones del Sahel] en diversos grados, la sequía, el falló de las cosechas y los altos precios de los alimentos básicos han acelerado la llegada de la 'temporada baja' de este año, la peor desde 2014 ”. La desnutrición es alta, especialmente entre mujeres y niños, con una mayoría significativa del total de los infantes en Chad sufriendo algún tipo de retraso en el crecimiento o efectos adversos a la salud como resultado. Como tal, la salud en Chad se ve muy afectada por la falta de alimentos. La inseguridad alimentaria es un síntoma de una mayor inestabilidad en Chad, política, étnica y religiosa. Estos problemas han contribuido a la inseguridad alimentaria a largo plazo en el país africano. (es)
- Chad currently suffers from widespread food insecurity. A majority of the population of Chad now suffers some form of malnutrition. 87% of its population lives below the poverty line. Because the country is arid, landlocked, and prone to droughts, many Chadians struggle to meet their daily nutritional needs. While international aid into the country has brought some relief, the situation in Chad remains severe due to broader famine in the Sahel region. The World Food Programme has declared a state of emergency in the region since early 2018, stating that, “...adding to the poverty, food insecurity and malnutrition which already affects [the nations of the Sahel] to varying degrees, drought, failed harvests and the high prices of staple foods have hastened the arrival of this year’s ‘lean season’ – the worst since 2014.” Malnutrition is high, especially among women and children, with a significant majority of all children in Chad suffering from some form of stunted growth or adverse health effects as a result. As such, health in Chad is greatly affected by lack of food. Food insecurity is a symptom of broader instability in Chad, which suffers from political, ethnic, and religious instability. These issues have contributed to long-term food insecurity in Chad. (en)
