A critical funding shortage affects Site Management, with only 8.7% of required funds allocated under the 2026 HNRP. This shortage leaves significant coverage gaps, with 21 localities having no active Site Management partner and 48 localities at the most critical level of need. These localities are home to a total of 2,980,596 people.

The funding shortfall poses protection risks, including weakened complaint and referral mechanisms and reduced safety infrastructure. Further details on the funding gaps and potential consequences are available, along with a request for dedicated funding to support the full Site Management response.
