Abstract EN

The African Sahel countries have historically been characterized by a complex set of crises, most notably population increase, food insecurity, and the fragility of state institutions.

These crises have resulted in problems that have further aggravated the social situation of the population, such as widespread corruption in all its forms, weak government policies, and chronic political instability.

All this led to a weak agricultural activity and development, a struggling agricultural economy, and increased dependency on the international market which exacerbated the living conditions causing hunger, misery, and social deprivation, particularly during the Corona pandemic.

This phenomenon expanded to become the dominant feature of African countries, despite the limited annual assistance from the international community and organizations aimed to reduce hunger in African countries by supporting their agricultural systems.
