In our project, From the Field Syrians living in Syria, Turkey, Jordan, Lebanon and Iraqi Kurdistan, shared recorded food diaries to highlight the impacts of the Covid-19 pandemic on food security. These videos offer a rare and poignant window into their daily lives.

It is a privilege to be able to share these videos, and we are very grateful to all of the Syrian families who participated in this project.
