OPERATIONAL UPDATES
• Lean season response ended in November 2020. A preliminary appraisal of WFP’s drought-response activities indicates the positive impacts of the response provided from May to September in the regions of Tagant and from June to November in Guidimakha, Assaba, Gorgol and Hodh El Charghi. According to several assessments (2019/2020), these regions are characterized with highest prevalence of food insecurity and malnutrition.
