In response to the deteriorating food security and malnutrition situation in East Africa and beyond, the UK is working with partners to accelerate efforts to transform agriculture and food systems to be more productive, sustainable and resilient.

The UK's Global Food Security Action plan supports and is aligned with published strategies including the International Development Strategy and the UK Humanitarian Framework. It is an internal FCDO document to direct and prioritise Officials' work on food security. However, we remain committed to scrutiny and have provided a confidential copy to the International Development Select Committee.
