Regional Overview of Food Insecurity Europe and Central Asia

The Europe and Central Asia region (ECA) has achieved Millennium Development Goal 1C, to halve the proportion of undernourished people, with undernourishment at less than 5 percent in the region since 2010-12, the lowest of all five FAO regions. All countries in the region have made considerable progress in reducing the incidence of hunger, and all except one has halved the incidence of hunger even before the 2015 deadline Progress on reducing the incidence of hunger from the 1990/92 baseline differs from country to country in the region with the Central Asian countries having slower progress. The Caucasus countries (Armenia, Azerbaijan, Georgia) as well as Kazakhstan achieved the MDG 1C target as early as 2006. Kyrgyzstan, Turkmenistan and Uzbekistan achieved this goal in 2014-16. Tajikistan has consistently had the highest rate of undernourishment in the region (the percentage of the population with a caloric intake below the minimum dietary energy requirement). The prevalence of undernourishment in Tajikistan was estimated at 28.1 percent in 1990- 1992, climbing to 33.2 percent in 2014-2016. Civil war (1992–1997) and rapid population growth (5.5 million in 1991 to 8.2 million today) influenced these results.
