Sahel and West Africa: 28.9 million people in crisis phase ( 3-5) November-December 2022
Published : December 2022
Provisional analyses of the Cadre Harmonisé (excluding Cabo Verde and Liberia) indicate that 28.9 million people are in need of immediate food assistance in the Sahel and West Africa. Acute malnutrition among children exceeds the emergency threshold (15%) in Senegal, Mauritania, Niger and north-eastern Nigeria. Security tensions and violence, inflation, and a generalised surge in cereal and fertilizer prices are exacerbating the food and nutrition crisis.
