Natural disasters and armed conflicts have a direct impact on access to food. Regardless of whether one lives in a drought-affected area or has left his or her home fleeing from an armed conflict – a food shortage poses a grave threat to health and life. Unrestricted access to food enhances the feeling of safety and gives a sense of well-being.
