32,000 families face food insecurity in centre of Mozambique

Around 32,000 families in the Chibabava district, in the centre of Mozambique, are facing food insecurity due to the impacts of the El Niño weather phenomenon.

The United Nations Children’s Fund (UNICEF) recently estimated that around 4.8 million people need humanitarian assistance in Mozambique, with $64 million (€60.6 million) needed to meet the needs. Mozambique is considered one of the countries most severely affected by global climate change. During the rainy season, from October to April, the country experiences cyclical floods and tropical cyclones.
