Mise à jour sur la sécurité alimentaire Avril - Septembre 2026 L’accès réduit aux aliments aggrave l’insécurité alimentaire au centre et au nord Download the report
  • L’insécurité alimentaire d’Urgence (Phase 4 de l’IPC) observée dans la région de Ménaka se poursuivra jusqu’en septembre à cause des difficultés énormes d’accès des populations aux aliments liées à la forte détérioration des moyens d’existence et du nombre élevé de déplacés. Les résultats de Crise (Phase 3 de l’IPC) se poursuivront à Kidal jusqu’en septembre 2026 à cause des moyens d’existence dégradés. Dans les autres zones d’insécurité, l’insécurité alimentaire de Stress (Phase 2 de l’IPC) à Crise (Phase 3 de l’IPC) se poursuivra jusqu’en septembre 2026 pour les ménages pauvres au pouvoir d’achat fortement érodé.
  • La recrudescence des incidents sécuritaires au nord et centre entre l’armée et les groupes armés continue de provoquer des déplacements et de dégrader les moyens d’existence des ménages. Les attaques coordonnées du Jama’at Nusrat al-Islam wal-Muslimin (JNIM) et le Front de libération de l’Azawad (FLA) sur Mopti, Gao, Kidal, Kati, et Bamako le 25 avril et le blocus annoncé de Bamako par le JNIM le 28 avril perturbent les flux commerciaux. FEWS NET suit les blocages routiers en cours qui entravent les flux commerciaux et sont susceptibles d’avoir un impact sur l’insécurité alimentaire aiguë à Bamako en cas de prolongation et mettra à jour son analyse en mai.
  • La perturbation de transhumance dégrade précocement les conditions d’élevage dans le nord du pays, réduisant les productions animales et le revenu pastoral qui réduit le pouvoir d’achat des ménages éleveurs.
  • Les perturbations dans l’approvisionnement en carburant, notamment en gasoil, devraient se poursuivre, sous l’effet des développements au Moyen-Orient et de l'insécurité sur les corridors de Dakar et d'Abidjan, entrainant une hausse des coûts de transport et du coût de la vie. Cette situation limite l’accès des ménages pauvres à l’alimentation, les contraignant à recourir aux emprunts, à la solidarité des parents/amis et à la réduction importante des dépenses non alimentaires voire alimentaires.

Ce rapport fournit une mise à jour des perspectives sur la sécurité alimentaire pour février 2026 à septembre 2026 et des messages clés de mars 2026. L’analyse est basée sur les informations disponibles au 28 avril 2026.
