Abstract
This brief shows that RUW led to increased food insecurity, declining monthly wages, with disproportionate effects on women, particularly those residing in urban areas. Domestic policies are better suited to mitigate the negative effects of the exogenous shocks (Russia-Ukraine War RUW) on food security, but female headed households continued to suffer disproportionately.
