In France, aid to food banks has decreased

According to this report, the number of clients of food banks in France increased by 9% in 2023. While the inflation rate in France is increasing, the polling institute "Ifop" and the French non-profit association "Secours populaire" recently reflected on the effects of the sharp increase in prices in France in their 17th general report on "poverty and instability". and warned that the severity of poverty in this country is increasingly worrying. Faced with this insecurity and growing poverty among the population, food aid associations are raising the alarm about their resources.
