Brochure, flyer, fact-sheetCameroon: Humanitarian Response Plan 2024 2024
Also available in:
No results found.Cameroon faces a multifaceted crisis due to the conflict in the Lake Chad Basin and Far North, the influx of refugees from the Central African Republic, ongoing tensions in the North-West and South-West regions, and the impact of natural hazards. Hundreds of people continue to flee from their homes in search of safety, causing tensions with host communities over scarce resources. Agriculture provides a livelihood to around 70 percent of the population, yet receives less than 2 percent of humanitarian funding to food sectors. Crisis-affected families urgently need scaled‑up support to produce their own food. -
Brochure, flyer, fact-sheetEthiopia: Belgium's contribution through the Special Fund for Emergency and Rehabilitation Activities (SFERA) 2024
Also available in:
No results found.The lives and livelihoods of an estimated one million people in Ethiopia’s Tigray region have been severely disrupted by the recent drought in the north. According to the recent seasonal assessment, 4.5 million people are acutely food insecure, including one million drought-affected people, one million internally displaced people, and 2.5 million host community members/returnees still grappling with the lingering impacts of the conflict. To mitigate the humanitarian and economic impacts of the drought, the Government of the Kingdom of Belgium contributed USD 500 000, through the Special Fund for Emergency and Rehabilitation Activities, to support the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations’ (FAO) emergency response in Tigray. In collaboration with the Tigray Bureau of Agriculture and Natural Resources, FAO will provide agricultural inputs (staple crop seeds) to 4 660 households, with each receiving enough seeds to plant 0.5 hectares during the upcoming main rainy season in late May/June 2024. -
Brochure, flyer, fact-sheetCameroon. Response overview - June 2019 2019
Also available in:
No results found.Until very recently, Cameroon was a middle-income country – a pillar of peace, security and development in the region – and is one of the largest economies in Africa. Currently, three different crises have undermined livelihoods and food security, wiping away decades of development gains. In addition to the nine year-long Boko Haram insurgency in the North and the hosting of over 270 000 Central African refugees in the East, the outbreak of violence linked to the secessionist movement in North-West and South-West is causing a widespread, escalating humanitarian crisis in Cameroon. Worsening violence and conflict are forcing people from hundreds of destroyed villages to stay with host communities in the main towns and cities, or to hide in the forests. As a result, over 700 000 people are displaced in the country. In response, FAO has been scaling up its work in the country – from deploying experts to quick-impact interventions to meet immediate needs and boost food production to enhancing longer-term technical assistance. Providing an integrated response that incorporates humanitarian, development and peace/security-based activities is crucial to building social cohesion and responding to the specifics of each crisis – protracted displacement in the East, the arrival of additional refugees and violence in the North, and socio-political turmoil in the North-West and South-West.
