Every two years, the Overview focuses on a theme, relevant to food security and nutrition, for in-depth analysis.
The Regional Overview of Food Security and Nutrition in the Near East and North Africa is jointly produced with fellow UN agencies IFAD, UNICEF, WFP, WHO and ESCWA. The report targets a wide audience, including policy-makers, international organizations, academic institutions and the general public.
