dc.descriptionIncreasing food prices on the international market affect food imports in Mauritania; high wheat prices in Nouakchott have affected access to food. There is no acute food insecurity in rural areas, except in the centre of the river valley and in south-east. However in Nouakchott periurban areas, 12,000 people are estimated to be food insecure. Nationwide 208,000 people are considered food insecure. Security concerns are still high due to continued threats by Al-Qaeda in the Islamic Magre heb. The government sells food at subsidized prices through the Operation Solidarity (OS) program to support poor households.
