HUMANITARIAN SITUATION
At the end of the third quarter, 1.5 million people comprising 787,000 women and 716,000 men including 678,000 boys and girls benefited from humanitarian assistance in at least one sector, representing 77 percent of the overall Humanitarian Response Plan (HRP) target. The implementation of a multisectoral response is at times hampered by limited resources, which reduces assistance to a single sector for people with multiple and overlapping needs, keeping them in a precarious situation. Violence was more pronounced compared to the same period in 2023 and remains one of the main factors driving humanitarian needs. The violence-affected population increased by 8 percent compared to the same period in 2023. The drop in the return flows of internally displaced persons has remained unchanged since January 2024. As of 29 October, US$203.1 million was received for the HRP (53 percent of the required US$367,7 million), a 33 percent decrease in funding mobilized over the same period in 2023. Three months before reaching the end of the response cycle, the Mine Action, Camp coordination and camp management (CCCM), Shelter-Non-Food Items (NFI), and Nutrition sectors were the least funded.
