Lebanon continues to face a protracted and multidimensional crisis, driven by economic collapse, high inflation, and the ongoing impact of hosting large numbers of refugees. Food insecurity remains widespread among both vulnerable Lebanese households and refugees.

As of early 2026, millions of people require food assistance, with many families struggling to meet basic needs due to reduced purchasing power and limited livelihood opportunities. Diet quality has deteriorated, and negative coping strategies, such as reducing meal sizes or skipping meals, remain common.
