Synopsis (short abstract) Haiti remains affected by a convergence of humanitarian crises exacerbated by the impact of Hurricane Matthew (2016) and to a lesser extent Hurricanes Irma and Maria (2017), which have severely disrupted food production, impacting overall food security. Agriculture and livestock in Haiti – particularly the dairy sector – are a major source of income for poor rural communities. As many Haitians have seen their livelihoods disappear given the country’s high exposure and vulnerability to multiple hazards, repopulation of a part of the animals lost in the Hurricane, especially poultry and goats, is essential in order to improve food security.

    The Niger continues to be affected by five major crises. In 2018, it is critical to restore the livelihoods of vulnerable affected populations by providing them with agricultural and livestock support to restore production and their access to food. As the significant forage deficit in certain areas of the country will translate into increased food insecurity and malnutrition rates, supporting livestock production – often the only source of livelihood for pastoralists – is essential.

    In Mali, the population mainly depends on agriculture and livestock for their subsistence. Without renewed support, their food security is likely to deteriorate. As the humanitarian situation remains of concern, particularly in northern Mali, due to the complexity and chronic dimension of the crisis, it is fundamental to urgently restore the livelihoods and strengthen the resilience of vulnerable populations.

    In the West Bank and Gaza Strip, thousands of Palestinians continue to be affected by the protracted crisis, repeated shocks, restrictions on movement of goods and people, limited productive capacities and lack of economic opportunities. These have eroded the resilience of vulnerable families and their capacity to cope. Given the humanitarian impact of the protracted protection crisis, urgent assistance is required to strengthen livelihood resilience and improve the food security of vulnerable people.
