République Démocratique du Congo - Aperçu des Besoins Humanitaire 2024 (Décembre 2023)
Ce document est consolidé par OCHA pour le compte de l’Équipe Humanitaire Pays et des partenaires de la communauté humanitaire en République Démocratique du Congo. Il présente une analyse commune de la crise, notamment des besoins humanitaires les plus pressants et du nombre estimé de personnes ayant besoin d’assistance. Il constitue une base factuelle permettant d’alimenter la planification stratégique conjointe de la réponse.
République Démocratique du Congo - Plan de Réponse Humanitaire 2024 (Février 2024)
En 2023, la RDC a continué à faire face à des défis humanitaires persistants liés à l'insécurité croissante dans certaines régions, et des problèmes structurels ancrés exacerbant les besoins humanitaires. Ainsi, la forte dégradation de la situation humanitaire en 2023 a eu des conséquences néfastes pour des millions de personnes, en particulier à l’est du pays.
- Low funding has affected response capacity, as only around 30 percent of the HRP budget for nutrition has been funded.
- Insufficient funding is available to cover preventive nutrition interventions in emergency.
- The availability and quality of data on DHIS 2 are low.
- Challenges exist with Intersectoral Collaboration and Programming (ISCP) with three clusters (WASH, FSL, and HEALTH), notably due to:
- Difficulty in bringing together the three clusters at the same time,
- Conflicting deadlines and schedules.
- Breach in nutritional supplies due to underfunding leading to significant gaps and shortages in Ready-to-Use Therapeutic (RUTF) and Supplementary (RUSF) Food, as well as a lack of contingency stocks.
- Challenges exist with nutritional supplies management, including fraud and the extended waiting time needed to bring supplies into the country.
- Lack of continuity between treatment of severe (SAM) and moderate (MAM) acute malnutrition marked by the low coverage of MAM programs.
- Access constraints mainly due to insecurity and movement restrictions imposed by non-state armed groups (NSAGs) in the emergency areas (e.g., Nord-Kivu and Ituri provinces). This causes the inaccessibility of several health districts (zones de santé) in need and difficulties in supplying inputs.
