Sahel is upending lives and livelihoods and forcing more people to flee in desperation. The <strong>climate crisis, conflict, inter-communal tensions, declining agricultural production and global economic downturns that increase food and fuel prices are the major drivers of hunger</strong> in Central Sahel – including Burkina Faso, Chad, Mali and Niger. </p> <p>Escalating violence in Burkina Faso, Mali and Niger has driven hundreds of thousands of refugees across the border, seeking safety in coastal countries. This makes West Africa one of the<strong> fastest-growing displacement crises in the world. </strong> </p> <p><strong>In Burkina Faso, an estimated 1.5 million people remain trapped in besieged areas</strong>, cut off from aid, trade and markets, cell-phone connections and basic social services. Access to besieged areas is one of the greatest challenges humanitarian workers face. </p> <p><strong>Ongoing insecurity in Niger</strong>, along with low agricultural productivity, climate shocks, and volatile markets are driving up hunger and humanitarian needs – which had already hit unprecedented levels in recent years. </p> <p>All forcibly displaced people in Central Sahel need <strong>urgent, life-saving assistance.</strong> Most of them are hosted by communities who are themselves often deprived and extremely vulnerable. Food needs are inexorably on the rise, at a time when <strong>humanitarian access is becoming increasingly challenging.</strong></p> <p>The World Food Programme (WFP) couples life-saving humanitarian response with an integrated package of activities that shore up livelihoods, restore ecosystems, create jobs and build social cohesion. The aim is to <strong>transform lives, end hunger, reduce unsafe migration, educate young people and stem conflict. </strong></p> <p>WFP needs <strong>US$336.3 million from February to June 2025</strong>, to ensure that families can continue to access life-saving food assistance. </p> </div> </div> </div> </div> </div> </div> </div> <div class="columns__side"> </div> </div> <div class="field field--field-paragraphs"> <div class="paragraph paragraph--type-page-accordion paragraph--view-mode-full mv4 mv5-lg clearfix"> <h2 class="page-stripe__title wfp-wrapper">What the WFP is doing to respond to the emergency in the Sahel region</h2> <section class="accordion wfp-wrapper js--accordion"> <dl class="accordion__items js--accordion__items"> <dt class="accordion__item-title active"> <div> <span>Burkina Faso</span> </div> </dt> <dd class="accordion__item-panel active"> <div class="accordion__item-content">WFP operations include: emergency food assistance to internally displaced people, host communities, refugees and people affected by the lean season; school meals, treatment and prevention of malnutrition; food assistance for assets for smallholder famers; support to value chains; climate insurance; national capacity development; and provision of information and communication technology, logistics and other support to partners.

Through its resilience-building activities, WFP helped to create boreholes, irrigation canals, wells, fodder banks, fishponds and plant nurseries, restored agricultural and grazing land, reforested areas, built flood-protection dikes and rehabilitated dunes.</div> <aside class="accordion__item-side"> <div class="accordion__item-image"> <img src="https://www.wfp.org/sites/default/files/styles/page_accordion/public/images/WF1601950%2020220602_WFP_MLI_Arlette%20Bashizi%20%2841%29.jpg?itok=9xP6BDc8" alt="Aerial photo of numerous hands taking food from a bowl."> </div> </aside> </dd> <dt class="accordion__item-title "> <div> <span>Niger</span> </div> </dt> <dd class="accordion__item-panel "> <div class="accordion__item-content">WFP supports crisis-affected populations, including refugees and internally displaced people, through food assistance, emergency school meals and specialized nutritious food for children.
