By late 2021, one in three Hondurans were experiencing crisis (IPC 3) or worse levels of food insecurity. The economy is still suffering from the crisis caused by the COVID-19 pandemic.

Homicide rates are rising again in 2023, and the country is considered one of the most dangerous in Latin America.  Rates of gender-based violence are among the highest in the region, with the country seeing a plague of femicides: a woman is murdered every 28 hours. Women, children and the LGBTQ+ community are most at risk while the resources to support survivors of violence remain insufficient. In addition, gang recruitment of minors is also contributing to an increase in the number of families and unaccompanied children leaving Honduras.</span></span></span></p><p class="rpla-paragraph rpla-paragraph--body"><span><span><span>Another factor that has ramifications in the humanitarian crisis that Hondurans face is climate change.
