The FAO says that in 2021, 31.9% of women in the world were moderately or severely “food insecure” compared with 27.6% of men, and that gap is widening. A survey by Care, an NGO , shows how gender inequality and food insecurity collide. In Somalia, men said they were eating smaller meals, but women said they were skipping meals altogether. The report quotes a woman in Nigeria. “We have reduced the amount of food for everyone,” she says, “except my husband who is the man of the house.” In children, hunger stunts brain development and reduces immunity. Just a few months of poor nutrition in childhood can reduce a person’s hopes of living a healthy, productive life. In a nursery for underprivileged children in São Paulo, the headteacher, Claudia Russo, sees more and more infants arriving for breakfast in the morning having eaten nothing since the lunch the nursery provided the day before. Those children are smaller, sicker and slower as a result. For them, the effects of the current food crisis will linger long after supply chains have been rebuilt and food prices have fallen.■
