Maputo, Mozambique, 12 March, 2021 – Two years after Cyclone Idai left a trail of destruction across parts of Mozambique, Zimbabwe and Malawi, Mozambique is once again battling with cyclone recovery and lack of funding.

In Northern Mozambique, where cyclone Kenneth hit in 2019, nearly 670,000 people are currently displaced, with the insecurity continuing to expand in scale, scope and complexity, pointing to potential further deterioration and additional displacement in 2021.
