Title:
MALAWI - Emergency Humanitarian Response to the 2025-26 Lean Season
Detail:
The Emergency Humanitarian Response to the 2025/26 Lean Season in Malawi is an operation designed to support the Government’s response to the severe food insecurity caused by consecutive climate shocks, including Cyclone Freddy, El Niño and La Niña, which have significantly reduced agricultural production and household food availability across the country. The project is financed through a USD 1 million grant from the African Development Bank’s Special Relief Fund (SRF) and is implemented by the Department of Disaster Management Affairs (DoDMA) under the Ministry of Homeland Security, in close collaboration with the National Food Reserve Agency (NFRA) and local authorities. The Bank’s support complements the Government’s National Lean Season Food Insecurity Response Plan and ongoing assistance provided by development and humanitarian partners, including the World Bank and UN agencies, by helping to fill part of the remaining financing gap for emergency food assistance.
