Namibia: Drought
For the past decade, Namibia has faced a prolonged drought, which has been further exacerbated by the ongoing El Niño phenomenon in the central and eastern Pacific Ocean. The El Niño conditions have resulted in most of the country experiencing below-normal rainfall from October 2023 to April 2024, leading to more than 1,4 million people experiencing high levels of acute food insecurity and urgently needing assistance to address food shortages and protect their livelihoods.
