  • Recent Food Price Developments in Most Vulnerable Countries
    RECENT FOOD PRICE DEVELOPMENTS IN MOST VULNERABLE COUNTRIES - ISSUE NO 2, DECEMBER 2008 - This price watch bulletin covers the quarterly period from September to November 2008 . The objective of the bulletin is to provide early warning information on price changes of staple food commodities and their likely impact on the cost of the food basket. Price changes are determined for each country on a quarterly basis. Highlights: • Prices still remain significantly higher compared to last year and long term averages, especially in Eastern and Southern Africa, Asia and Middle East. Overall, the impact on the cost of the food basket remains relatively high. • However, in most of the 36 countries monitored, prices of main staple food commodities have slightly declined over the last three months. • West Africa: Staple food prices were generally stable during the last quarter, except in Benin and Senegal where prices have continued to rise-albeit at a lower rate. The year on year price changes remain higher than changes from long term averages. • East and Southern Africa: The region shows a mixed picture. Half of the countries are still experiencing upward price trends, with significant maize price increases observed in Malawi and Kenya. Prices remain very high compared to their long run averages, especially in the Horn of Africa. The situation remains alarming in Zimbabwe due to hyperinflation . • Asia and Selected Countries: Prices have either remained stable or declined, implying that the cost of food basket in these countries has declined more when compared to other regions such as Africa. However, they remain significantly higher in comparison to the long run averages.

  • In Mali, Burkina Faso and Niger Situation Overview : Niger – Tillabéri and Tahoua Regions | March 2020
    Humanitarian situation monitoring (HSM) in Mali, Burkina Faso and Niger Situation overview : Niger – Tillabéri and Tahoua regions | March 2020 Context Since the outbreak of violence in Mali in 2012, the border area between Niger, Mali and Burkina Faso has been characterized by a climate of insecurity due to the presence of armed groups, crime and rising tensions between communities1. The security situation in Niger has deteriorated sharply since 2018 and has caused the internal displacement of 159,028 people in the Tillabéri and Tahoua regions as of March 20202. In addition, the provision of humanitarian assistance is subject to multiple constraints resulting in limitations to access affected populations due to security, geographic and climatic factors, as well as to measures taken as part of the state of emergency covering parts of the Tillabéri and Tahoua regions1. Limited humanitarian access is one of the factors at the origin of important information gaps about the scope, nature and severity of needs. To fill these information gaps, REACH has been implementing a monitoring of the humanitarian situation, financed by the U.S. Office of Foreign Disaster Assistance (OFDA) since January 2020, following a pilot phase in November 20193. This situation overview presents the main results for data collected in March 2020 in the Tillabéri and Tahoua regions and analyzes the development of main indicators in the Tillabéri region between November 2019 and March 20204. Methodology This assessment adopts a so-called “Area of knowledge” methodology. The aim of this methodology is to collect, analyze and share up-to-date information regarding multi-sectoral humanitarian needs in the region, including in areas that are difficult to access.
