Opportunities for action at COP29.
This report summarises the key outcomes of the Preventing Hunger in Conflict Regional Dialogue Series, four one-day events which took place between July 2023 and January 2024 in the key regional hubs of Nairobi, Panama, and Dakar. A fourth online event also addressed the situation in the Middle East. The series was organised by Action Against Hunger, Oxfam, Save the Children, WFP and World Vision.

In Northern Gaza, 1 in 6 children are acutely malnourished, with an estimated 3% facing the most severe form of wasting and requiring immediate treatment.
The global hunger funding gap has hit 65% for countries with the most urgent needs.
