CARE experts in Mozambique warn of chronic cycle of disasters

CARE International teams in northern Mozambique are witnessing enormous scenes of damage and destruction in towns and communities that were struck by Cyclone Kenneth.

CARE is firmly convinced that financial inclusion is one of the best ways to break the cycle of poverty for women. The international development organization highlights stark differences in the access provided to men versus women.

A CARE team reports widespread destruction in the northern province of Cabo Delgado where Cyclone Kenneth made landfall yesterday, a little more than a month after the country experienced its deadliest cyclone.

The effects of last month’s Cyclone Idai are threatening to bring a catastrophic hunger crisis compounded by the existing food insecurity across Southern Africa, CARE International experts warn.

Women and girls affected by last month’s destructive Cyclone Idai storm are facing serious health risks due to shortages of menstrual hygiene support, CARE experts have revealed.

As humanitarian organizations working across the globe to protect and assist civilians in conflict, we welcome today’s Security Council meeting on International Humanitarian Law (IHL) and the protection of humanitarian space.

CARE’s aid distributions in communities worst-affected by Cyclone Idai, are aimed at stemming the onset of a "second disaster" as experts warn of a cholera in Mozambique.

26 March marks four years since the escalation of conflict in Yemen in 2015. In four years the country has seen the worst cholera outbreak in history, a declaration of famine, and a crippled economy.
