"In countries such as Yemen, the Democratic Republic of Congo, Nigeria, South Sudan and Burkina Faso, the combination of violent conflict and the pandemic has led to a dramatic rise in the number of people living on the brink of starvation. In the face of the pandemic, the World Food Programme has demonstrated an impressive ability to intensify its efforts."
Previous winners of the Nobel Peace Prize include Ethiopian politician Abiy Ahmed in 2019, and activists Nadia Murad and Denis Mukwege in 2018.
