HIGHLIGHTS / KEY PRIORITIES

  • The water supply in Moroni and surroundings is being restored; however, some 50% of water is lost due to leaks.

  • Water, Sanitation and Hygiene promotion is a priority.

  • Surveillance is in place in all three islands and malaria cases are now under control.

  • Activities in the agriculture sector have been intensified. There is a fear among the population of insufficient food supplies – in particular domestic - during the forthcoming Ramadan.

  • Sanitary installations are prioritised for schools (latrines, hand washing stations).

  • The early recovery action plan workshops are ongoing and most sectors have produced a first draft.
