Title:
ZAMBIA - Humanitarian and Food Security Response to Mitigate the effects of the Drought in Zambia
Detail:
This proposal directly responds to the recent call by the President of the Republic of Zambia in his address to the nation on 29 February 2024, when he declared the drought situation a national disaster and emergency. Following this appeal for humanitarian assistance from cooperating partners, the African Development Bank has partnered with WFP to submit this proposal for funds under the Bank’s Special Relief Fund (SRF), to provide emergency assistance that will enable the partnership to complement the Government's response and provide lifesaving assistance to the food-insecure populations affected by the impact of El-Niño. This request fits within the parameters of AfDB's revised policy guidelines procedures for emergency relief assistance (ADB/BD/WP/2008/211/Rev. 1 –ADF/BD/WP/2008/173/Rev.1). This project primely contributes towards climate adaptation result. As such 100% of the total approval is attributed as climate finance, out of which 100% is adaptation finance.
