  • (IPC Phase 5) Continues in South Sudan, Yemen, and Somalia
    EAST AFRICA Food Security Outlook February to September 2017 Elevated risk of Famine (IPC Phase 5) continues in South Sudan, Yemen, and Somalia KEY MESSAGES Projected food security outcomes, February to May 2017 In January, the South Sudan IPC Technical Working Group (TWG) raised concerns that Famine (IPC Phase 5) could be ongoing in parts of central Unity. Upon reviewing the analysis, the IPC’s Emergency Review Committee (ERC) concluded that while available evidence was insufficient to make a Famine determination following IPC protocols, Famine (IPC Phase 5) was likely occurring in Leer, possibly occurring in Koch, and that humanitarian assistance was preventing Famine (IPC Phase 5) in Mayendit. Based on these ERC conclusions, the South Sudan TWG declared that Famine (IPC Phase 5) was the most likely outcome in Leer and Mayendit during the February-July period. Yemen continues to face the largest food security emergency in the world, with large populations in Crisis (IPC Phase 3) or Emergency (IPC Phase 4) acute food insecurity, the latter of which is associated with an increased risk of excess mortality. In a worst-case scenario, where food imports drop Source: FEWS NET significantly below requirement levels or where conflict Projected food security outcomes, June to September 2017 prevents trade and humanitarian access to populations for an extended period of time, Famine (IPC Phase 5) is possible. Large areas of Somalia, southeastern Ethiopia, and northeastern Kenya are expected to be in Crisis (IPC Phase 3) between February and September 2017, with some areas of Somalia in Emergency (IPC Phase 4), due to impacts of drought in 2016 on agriculture and livestock.

  • 1 Internal Ex-Post Evaluation for Development Planning
    Internal Ex-Post Evaluation for Development Planning Project conducted by Djibouti Representative Office: November, 2018 Country Name The Master Plan Study Project for Sustainable Irrigation and Farming in Southern Djibouti Republic of Djibouti I. Project Outline Djibouti was a typical nation depending on transit trade economy, of which service sector such as intermediate trading, service activities at Djibouti port and others covered the large part of Djibouti’s Gross Domestic Product (GDP). Because of its severe natural condition, its GDP from primary industry sector, agricultural production, was quite small. Thus, a rate of the food self-sufficiency was very low and most of food for the population depended on imports from outside. More than half of local population depended mainly on animal husbandry, however, the number of livestocks decreased partly due to the effects of climate change and the severe droughts which had caused the reduction of natural pastures in the grazing land. Thus, many livelihoods of pastoral people were Background supported by labor workings of family members such as works at the port in Djibouti City. Its chance and income of labor working, therefore, were not stable. In order to cope with these severe situations, the Government of Djibouti set a policy that livelihood of the local pastoral people should be improved through agricultural activities. Accordingly, the Ministry of Agriculture, Water, Fisheries, Livestock and Marine Resources (MAEPE-RH) instructed the project formation of irrigation and agriculture development in southern regions where water resources for agriculture products were not abundant with limited agricultural technology. Therefore, it was urgently needed to establish and develop sustainable irrigation farming by obtaining stable water resources and establishing farming system applicable to the local condition.

  • Igad Bi-Annual Meeting on Food Security and Nutrition
    IGAD BI-ANNUAL MEETING ON FOOD SECURITY AND NUTRITION Report June 2020 Source: USAID About IFRAH IGAD Food Security, Nutrition and Resilience Analysis Hub (IFRAH) integrates some of the existing food security and resilience units already existing within IGAD. These include the Food Security and Nutrition Working Group (FSNWG), Resilience Analysis Unit (RAU) and Integrated Phase Classification (IPC). The rationale for this is the need to harness the interlinkages and synergies of the FSNWG, RAU and IPC analyses along with those of IGAD Specialised Institutions such as IGAD Climate Prediction and Applications Centre (ICPAC), IGAD Conflict Early Warning and Response Mechanism (CEWARN) and IGAD Centre for Pastoral Areas and Livestock Development (ICPALD) as a basis for an early warning system that can trigger early action and prevent emergencies. The goal of IFRAH is to contribute to efforts by IGAD and Member States to achieve strengthened analytical capacities and institutional mechanisms needed to support decision making processes on food security, nutrition and resilience in the IGAD Region. Thus IFRAH seeks to bring together information on food security, nutrition, conflict, climate shocks including climate change, displacement, market access and prices, human, animal and plant health among others, from a range of relevant sources to inform decision making and support the building of resilience to shocks in the region.

  • Appeal to the International Community Desert Locust Invasion in Republic
    DESERT LOCUST INVASION IN REPUBLIC OF DJIBOUTI Appeal to the international community Desert Locust Invasion in Republic of Djibouti MONTH DJIBOUTI Crédit photo : FAO 1 MAEPE-RH DESERT LOCUST INVASION IN REPUBLIC OF DJIBOUTI INTRODUCTION Food insecurity (reference to the IPC results, March 2019) in the Republic of Djibouti (RoD), is a serious concern, with about 280,000 people (29% of the total population) suffering from chronic food insecurity (CFI) across the country. The most severely affected areas are the Obock region in the North, the Ali-Sabieh and Dikhil regions in the South, with 30%, 25% and 20% of the rural population at severe CFI level, respectively. This food insecurity situation has been recently exacerbated by the Desert Locust (DL) invasion triggered by the high abnormal humidity since the floods of November 2019, which caused damages that further threatens the food security of more than 26 700 people (4,450 households) among the population living in the affected rural areas (70% of the population engaged in agropastoral activities). The Government of the RoD estimates that the damage caused by the DL infestations on vegetation cover (crops and pastures) have already caused a loss of around USD 5 million for the six regions of the country (Arta, Dikhil, Ali-Sabieh, Tadjourah, Obock and the Djibouti-City Suburb Areas - see Table 1). Indeed, while the bulletin issued on 4 December 2019 by FAO's locust watch unit indicated that DL swarms were to strike the RoD, a report from the field already indicated a presence of DLs between 2 and 5 December 2019 in Dikhil region (As-Eyla, Hanlé, Dikhil periurban areas, Mouloud), and Ali-Sabieh region (Assamo).
