Food insecurity is one of the main challenges facing internally displaced persons (IDPs) in Ukraine during Russia’s full-scale invasion. Based on in-depth interviews with IDPs, host communities and humanitarian organisations, we analyse three ways of providing food to IDPs: (1) food aid, (2) cash transfers and (3) food self-provisioning. We apply the concept of food sovereignty to look beyond nutritional needs to understand IDPs’ relationship with the land, the host community and their agency in the resettlement process. This study contributes to a better understanding of the food systems of displaced populations in Ukraine and other war-torn countries.
