Humanitarian context

The upsurge in droughts and floods and the emergence of conflicts in the north and center of the country have exacerbated an already chronic food insecurity. 1.1 million people will be severely food insecure in the country during the lean season (June to August).

The Mopti region in the Sahelian zone is particularly vulnerable during the lean season.

Access to health services, education, and drinking water is very limited. Out-of-school and out-of-school education are reaching worrying levels, while almost one in two inhabitants is under the age of 15.
