| dc.description | The Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations’ (FAO’s) La Niña Anticipatory Action and Response Plan, first launched in August 2024 and updated in January 2025, seeks urgent funding to address the escalating risks and potential impacts on agriculture and food security. Based on the latest forecasts and evolving conditions, FAO is prioritizing assistance to people in 41 countries currently at highest risk. Early flexible funding is fundamental to sync FAO operations with the fast-evolving forecasts and moving targets associated with La Niña.La Niña conditions are currently active, and are most likely to persist until April 2025. The change in weather patterns has already led to devastating floods and storms, as well as uneasonably dry conditions in various regions. Although La Niña conditions are expected to diminish after April, many countries will remain at risk of localized extreme weather events threatening already vulnerable farming communities.We know that acting ahead of climate extremes prevents losses and results in gains. Drawing on its expertise and leveraging flexible funding from its partners, FAO is actively implementing proactive measures in priority countries to mitigate these impacts. Continued donor support remains critical to enable communities to prepare effectively, reduce vulnerabilities and safeguard food security amidst the challenges posed by potential La Niña impacts and other climate extremes. | |
