The Democratic Republic of the Congo faced a particularly challenging 2024, with multiple crises worsening food insecurity. Continued armed conflict has displaced over 1.4 million people between January and July, raising the total number of Internally Displaced Persons to 7 million.

In November, FAO Deputy Director-General Beth Bechdol visited Rusayo 2, the largest internally displaced people's camp in the DRC. In this on-the-ground episode, she highlights FAO's efforts to support farmers and displaced communities by providing essential agricultural assistance, helping them survive today while building resilience against future crises.
