A Relentless Struggle in Southern Angola: The South West Angola Emergency Response Project relief amid food insecurity
Carolina is a mother, one of many who, in the context of the emergency, has been working to get around the challenging situation she finds herself in. Aged 42 and with her five children, she lives in the community of Bata-Bata, Humpata municipality in Huíla. In the short rainy season that is recorded in the south, Carolina works on her small plot, and in the dry season, which is most of the seasonal period, she does informal jobs to make ends meet for her children. The short rainy season is not enough for planting to be prosperous, and with the economic crisis worsening in the country, families are seeing episodes of food shortages become increasingly dramatic.

Price Shocks: Economic gains masking a growing hunger and malnutrition crisis
World Vision's annual price survey analyses global food prices over the past three years. This Price Shocks report is a continuation of our 2021 and 2022 studies with findings showing a slight dip in the highest costs of living for some while others remain at previously marked crisis levels. This year's findings continue to underscore the uneven recovery from the socioeconomic shocks from COVID-19, inflation, and extreme weather and indicates a disparity of food prices, both in the current cost of the basket of 10 common food items and in the year-on-year comparisons.

Behaviour Change: Evidence Summary for Menstrual Hygiene Management
Menstrual health affects an estimated 1.9 billion women and girls ages 15 to 49, although others outside this group are also directly or indirectly affected. However, menstruation is often a taboo topic that is insufficiently prioritised, leading to a lack of education, inadequate infrastructure, improper management of hygiene materials, and an overall stigma surrounding it. There are many important elements to consider for menstrual hygiene interventions, including access to proper facilities, access to menstrual products, social norms about menstruation, and knowledge about how to manage menstrual appropriately. This brief summarises behaviour change approaches and considerations for effective menstrual hygiene management.
