Key advocacy messages

The humanitarian landscape in Mozambique is highly vulnerable to climate shocks and conflict, necessitating immediate and strategic preparedness.

Key Ask: We seek donor and partner support to develop comprehensive preparedness plans and ensure prepositioned supplies in the most vulnerable districts.

The presence of humanitarian aid in hard-to-reach areas is limited, with increasing needs following recent conflict and IDP displacement.

Key Ask: We call on partners to promote intersectoral collaboration with the health, food security, WASH, and protection sectors.

The nutrition sector faces a funding shortfall which hinders our ability to address the lifesaving needs of the most vulnerable populations.

Key Ask: We need donor support to mobilize funds to sustain interventions.

There is a need to expand the coverage of nutrition humanitarian programs for timely and effective responses to vulnerable populations especially IDPs.
