In our local area, a historic anticipatory action plan has been triggered by the WFP to mitigate the effects of severe drought. This approach involves providing humanitarian assistance before a crisis occurs, allowing communities to take proactive measures. The plan has been activated in Eastern Equatoria, where drought risk is increasing.

The WFP is now delivering assistance to the area, aiming to protect lives, food security, and livelihoods. Further details about the anticipatory action plan and its implementation can be found through ReliefWeb, the source of this information.
