Happy belated World Food Day! This year’s ceremony took place on Monday against a backdrop of increasing world hunger and conflicts. And unfortunately, we have more bad news here at Devex Dish.
Firstly, El Niño is back and aid agencies are bracing themselves for increased food insecurity.
The phenomenon, which officially began in July, is caused by warmer sea surface temperatures and can alter global weather patterns, simultaneously causing heavy rains in some areas and drought in others.
