Perspectives sur la sécurité alimentaire Juin 2026 - Janvier 2027 La persistance des conflits maintient les résultats de Crise (Phase 3 de l’IPC) à Tillabéry, Diffa et Tahoua Download report Read full report
  • Des résultats de Crise (Phase 3 de l’IPC) devraient persister dans les régions de Tillabéry et de Diffa, ainsi que dans la partie nord-ouest de Tahoua, jusqu’en janvier 2027. De juin à septembre, les effets cumulés de la persistance de l’insécurité et des inondations saisonnières continueront de perturber les moyens d’existence, de restreindre l’accès aux champs et aux marchés, et de réduire les opportunités de revenus. Les ménages sont contraints de réduire le nombre de repas par jour, résultant des déficits de la consommation alimentaire. Un groupe restreint de ménages très pauvres et de déplacées internes fait face à des déficits plus sévères et sera en l’Urgence (Phase 4 de l’IPC). Entre octobre 2026 et janvier 2027, les récoltes faibles, à cause de la limitation de l’accès aux champs, ne permettront pas d’améliorer la consommation alimentaire qui sera limitée à des repas journaliers en nombre et quantité réduits pour les ménages pauvres. 
  • L’insécurité alimentaire en Stress (Phase 2 IPC) prédominera dans les zones non affectées par les conflits de juin à septembre 2026 avant de s’améliorer entre octobre 2026 et janvier 2027. Dans ces zones, en raison de l’épuisement des stocks, d’une forte dépendance au marché et des prix des produits alimentaires élevés, les faibles revenus des ménages pauvres ne suffiront que pour les dépenses alimentaires mais pas celles de non alimentaires. Les petites proportions de ménages pauvres touchés par les inondations seront confrontées à des pertes de moyens d’existence plus importantes et pourraient ainsi basculer vers des résultats de Crise (Phase 3 de l’IPC). Entre octobre 2026 et janvier 2027, les nouvelles récoltes devraient améliorer la disponibilité alimentaire et soutenir la consommation alimentaire adéquate, permettant un résultat Minimal (Phase 1 de l’IPC).
  • FEWS NET estime que les besoins d’assistance alimentaire seraient entre 2,5 et 2,9 millions de personnes et devraient culminer entre août et septembre 2026, ce qui coïncide avec le pic de la période de soudure. Les personnes déplacées internes et les ménages pauvres resteront les plus exposés aux chocs sécuritaires affectant les sources de nourriture et de revenus.
