    Peste des petits ruminants (PPR) is a highly contagious viral disease of both domestic and wild small ruminants with a mortality and morbidity of up to 90 percent. Peste des petits ruminants has a significant annual economic impact ranging from USD 1.4 billion to USD 1.2 billion. PPR originated from Africa and has since spread to the Near East, Georgia, Türkiye and parts of Asia including China and Mongolia. In July 2024, PPR was first recorded in Greece and Romania posing a threat to the neighboring Bulgaria, the Balkan nations, Hungary and Moldova. This alert will therefore aid in raising awareness on the increase spread of PPR in Europe to aid countries develop strategies to prevent the further spread of this disease targeting veterinary professionals and all stakeholders involved with both small and wild small ruminants. This document highlights FAOs recommendations to curtail the already ongoing outbreak in European Union member countries.

    The State of Food Security and Nutrition in the World 2025
    Addressing high food price inflation for food security and nutrition
    2025
    Also available in:
    While some progress and recovery have been made in recent years, the world is still above pre-COVID-19 pandemic levels and far from eradicating hunger and food insecurity by 2030 (SDG Target 2.1). Similarly, despite some progress in the global nutrition targets, the world is not on track to achieve SDG Target 2.2. Among other factors, persistent food price inflation has slowed this momentum.The State of Food Security and Nutrition in the World 2025 highlights how elevated inflation in many countries has undermined purchasing power and, especially among low-income populations, access to healthy diets. The report documents how high food price inflation is associated with increases in food insecurity and child malnutrition. Vulnerable groups, including low-income households, women, and rural communities, can be particularly affected by food price inflation, risking setbacks in the fight against hunger and malnutrition.In response to these challenges and to prevent future price shocks, the report examines policy measures adopted by countries, and outlines what is necessary going forwards. It stresses the importance of coherent implementation of fiscal and monetary policies to stabilize markets, promote open and resilient trade, and protect vulnerable populations. Additionally, it calls for better data systems and sustained investment in resilient agrifood systems to build long-term food security and nutrition. These coordinated actions are vital to reignite progress towards ending hunger and malnutrition by 2030.
