Resumen
Descripción
In Haiti, the rise in armed gang violence, especially in the Metropolitan Area of Port-au-Prince, has led to significant population displacement within the country. Moreover, according to the latest Integrated Food Security Phase Classification (IPC) analysis (March 2024), half of the population in Haiti is in high acute food insecurity. The main drivers of food insecurity in the country include increased violence, poor agricultural production due to below-average rainfall, inflation and the lingering impact of recurrent climate hazards. In response, FAO requires a total funding of USD 52.6 million to assist 608 000 people. For the remaining months of 2024, FAO will focus on implementing its emergency activities in some of the areas most affected by the crisis, namely the Grand’Anse, Artibonite and Nippes departments, and the Metropolitan Area of Port-au-Prince.
