Abstract

This paper evaluates the developments in food security across Arab countries during the period 2010–2022, drawing on the four dimensions outlined in the Global Food Security Index: availability, affordability, quality and safety, and resilience. The study highlights the critical role of food security in achieving economic and social stability, particularly in a region highly exposed to external shocks, climate change, and geopolitical tensions. Despite notable progress in some areas, the findings reveal persistent disparities among Arab countries, especially in terms of affordability and resilience. The analysis also underscores the importance of sustainable agricultural practices, investment in infrastructure, and enhanced regional cooperation to ensure long-term food security. Based on the results, the study offers a set of policy recommendations to strengthen food systems, improve nutritional outcomes, and reduce vulnerability to future crises.
