  ABSTRACT: The aim of this study is to analyse the effects of environmental vulnerability on food availability in sub-Saharan Africa. This work uses cross-country data covering the period 2000-2024. Following the empirical models developed by Turner et al. (2003) and Wilbanks (2007), and the fixed effects and random effects method, this study concludes that environmental vulnerability has significant negative effects on food availability. In view of this negative impact, it is imperative to invest heavily in policies for climate change adaptation and sustainable natural resource management. This includes promoting climate-resilient agricultural practices, developing early warning systems for extreme weather events, and investing in efficient irrigation and watershed management.
