It provides the first comprehensive analysis of Greater Horn of Africa (GHA)’s food insecurity and hydroclimate using the state-of-the-art .Gravity Recovery and Climate Experiment. (GRACE) .and its Follow-on (GRACE-FO)’s, centennial precipitation, hydrological models’ and reanalysis’ products.. It is here opined that GHA is endowed with freshwater (surface and groundwater) being home to the world‘s second largest freshwater body (Lake Victoria) and the greatest continental water towers (Ethiopian Highlands) that if properly tapped in a sustainable way, will support its irrigated agriculture as well as pastoralism.

Moreover, GHA is bedevilled by poor governance and the ``.donor-assistance.” syndrome; andin 2020-2021 faced the so-called ``triple threats’’ of .desert locust infestation., .climate variability/change. .impacts. and .COVID-19 pandemic..
