Perspectives sur la sécurité alimentaire Juin 2026 - Janvier 2027 Le conflit prolongé maintien des déficits alimentaires malgré les améliorations saisonnières attendues Download report Read full report
  • Entre juin 2026 et janvier 2027, les résultats de Crise (Phase 3 de l’IPC) prédomineront dans le nord‑est, sud‑est et nord‑ouest, en raison de l’épuisement des stocks, d’une forte dépendance aux marchés dans un contexte d’insécurité persistante, de perturbations continues des flux commerciaux et de revenus limités. Malgré les améliorations saisonnières attendues après la période de soudure à partir d’octobre dans le nord et juillet au sud, les ménages pauvres et déplacés continueront de faire face à des déficits de consommation dans les zones d’insécurité en raison de la production insuffisante, de l’insécurité persistante et de prix élevés.
  • Une amélioration saisonnière vers des résultats de Stress (Phase 2 de l’IPC) est attendue dans les zones du centre et du sud à partir de juillet, avec l’arrivée progressive des premières récoltes et l’augmentation des revenus agricoles. Toutefois, en raison de revenus limités et de prix élevés, les zones enclavées ou touchées par l’insécurité resteront en Crise (Phase 3 de l’IPC) jusqu’à la fin de la saison des pluies.
  • Dans le sud‑ouest, les ménages devraient rester en Stress (Phase 2 de l’IPC) tout au long de la période, soutenus par une disponibilité plus stable du manioc, des récoltes précoces et une exposition moindre à l’insécurité. Toutefois, les contraintes économiques, notamment les prix élevés et les revenus limités, continueront de restreindre leur capacité à couvrir les dépenses non alimentaires essentielles.
  • FEWS NET estime qu’environ 750 000 à 999 999 de personnes pourraient avoir besoin d’une assistance alimentaire, avec le pic entre juin et août pour prévenir une détérioration supplémentaire des conditions. Malgré l’amélioration saisonnière attendue à partir de juillet avec l’arrivée des premières récoltes au sud, de nombreux ménages pauvres dans les zones affectées par le conflit continueront de faire face à des déficits alimentaires.
