Synopsis (short abstract) The conflict in the Syrian Arab Republic continues to drive the largest refugee crisis in the world. In addition to violence, people face widespread unemployment, lack of formal livelihood opportunities and natural resources degradation that undermine food security. Consequently, millions of Syrians have fled their homes, with the majority seeking refuge in neighbouring Egypt, Iraq, Jordan, Lebanon and Turkey. Despite the generosity of host countries, local communities and Syrian refugees continue to face high levels of economic insecurity, unemployment and vulnerability. Establishing and safeguarding the resilience of host communities and refugees calls for a concerted, consistent, conflict-sensitive approach, building national and regional capacities to protect the lives, livelihoods and food security of the most vulnerable across the region.

    Thirteen years of conflict and an enduring economic crisis in the Syrian Arab Republic continue to drive humanitarian needs, disrupt agriculture and weaken the country’s food production capacity. The situation worsened significantly after the earthquakes of February 2023. Inflation, high food prices and a declining economy have pushed more than half of the population into acute food insecurity, with millions more at risk. The resulting increased cost of humanitarian response emphasizes the need for cost-effective solutions. Investing in emergency agricultural assistance is crucial. For example, every USD 1 invested in local wheat production yields around four times its value in food produced.

    With the conflict now in its thirteenth year, the Syrian Arab Republic continues to face insecurity, economic crisis, drought-like conditions and severe agroclimatic fluctuations. An estimated 12.1 million people are food insecure, of which 49 percent live in rural areas. Without urgent support, an additional 2.9 million people are at risk of becoming food insecure. Humanitarian response to support farming and livestock‑keeping families with restoring their production is critical. Every USD 1 invested to help a farmer grow wheat yields more than 4.5 times its value in staple food produced, for that family, their local community and markets.
