    Extremely susceptible to climate shocks, Mozambique has experienced cyclical droughts and flooding in the last few years, including two major cyclones in 2019. These extreme weather events have compounded the high poverty levels and increased vulnerability across most of the country. According to the Integrated Phase Classification for the period April to September 2022, approximately 1 444 000 people were estimated to be experiencing high levels of acute food insecurity and to be in need of humanitarian assistance. Of these, more than 1.1 million people are in the four provinces of Cabo Delgado, Niassa, Nampula and Zambézia, where many of the country’s Internally Displaced Persons (IDPs) are concentrated. In Cabo Delgado, the conflict continues to exacerbate the food insecurity crisis. Violent attacks by insurgents are increasing and expanding to new districts, with the situation expected to become worse. Currently, 1 028 743 people have been displaced as a result of the insecurity situation and the number of people in need in northern Mozambique has been estimated at 1.4 million. Both IDPs and their host communities are fully dependent on agriculture, fishery, livestock and forestry production for their livelihoods and income. The intensity of the crisis and its impact on the food and nutrition security of the affected populations call for timely and coordinated humanitarian support to rebuild agricultural livelihoods and enable people to become self-reliant and productive once again.
