Afghanistan is particularly affected by the serious worldwide problem of food insecurity because of its lengthy history of political unrest, war, and natural disasters throughout the last two decades (2000 to 2022). The causes and historical patterns of food insecurity in Afghanistan are examined in this research, which also emphasizes the country's dependence on agriculture and vulnerability to external shocks and natural catastrophes. A sizable section of the populace finds it challenging to get enough wholesome food because of political unpredictability, persistent conflict, and inadequate administration. By reducing economic prospects, upsetting supply systems, and raising poverty rates, the COVID-19 epidemic has made these issues worse. This study employs an explanatory research approach, using secondary data from institutions such as the UN Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs (OCHA) and the World Bank. The results offer useful information for scholars, humanitarian organizations, and policymakers dedicated to promoting sustainable development and enhancing regional stability in Afghanistan. Afghanistan's food insecurity requires comprehensive policies focused on sustainable development, government reforms, infrastructure development, and job creation. International cooperation and support are essential to tackling these intricate problems and establishing the framework for long-term stability and economic growth. |
