Resumen
Descripción
Between July and September 2019, 2.2 million people, almost 18 percent of the total population, are expected to face severe food insecurity.
The projected food insecure caseload is 40 percent higher than the estimate at the beginning of 2019, as drought conditions are severely affecting crop and livestock production and disrupting livelihoods.
Household resilience has been undermined by recurrent climatic shocks, overstretched social support networks and declining humanitarian assistance.
Urgent life saving and livelihood support, including cash and food assistance, are needed to prevent a further worsening of the current humanitarian situation.
