Highlights
- Colombia faces multiple, overlapping crises. Armed conflict, disasters and challenges posed by migration flows all exacerbate protection risks, food insecurity and the spread of disease. Additionally, restricted humanitarian access continues to block aid for the most vulnerable communities, with Indigenous and Afro-descendant populations the most affected. Overall, an estimated 10.3 million people, including approximately 3.7 million children and 3.3 million refugees and migrants, will require humanitarian assistance in 2026.
- UNICEF will deliver multisectoral interventions in health and nutrition, education, child protection and WASH, with an emphasis on localized and scalable approaches, promoting peacebuilding and community engagement and supporting partners and institutions to sustain impact in remote areas.
- UNICEF requires US$27.1 million in 2026 to reach 254,800 people, including 180,240 children, with life-saving services and supplies in priority territories identified through inter-agency planning, in line with the Humanitarian Reset.
