Introduction
Since early October 2017, when the Islamist militants or jihadists – identified as the Ansar al-Sunna – launched their first attacks in the villages and towns of Mozambique’s northern province of Cabo Delgado, insurgency and conflict has continued to escalate, targeting civilians, public infrastructure and government buildings. Although the Government of Mozambique continues to make concerted efforts to fight and subdue the terrorist insurgency through its national defence forces, the
Forças Armadas de Defesa de Moçambique (FADM), a series of battles with the terrorist militants has resulted in widespread violence, insecurity, the death of over 2 400 people
[1] and the displacement of over 500 000 civilians by the end of November 2020.

The conflict in the northern Mozambique province of Cabo Delgado, which started in 2017, has now forced nearly 670,000 people from their homes. Living conditions in the temporary camps, set up to accommodate thousands of exhausted displaced families, feel increasingly inadequate. As they try to cope with a lack of food, clothing, medicines and plastic sheeting to protect themselves during the rainy season, many feel hopeless and frustrated by the situation.
MSF Mental health programmes
Every aspect of life in the camps is a struggle and the traumas that internally displaced people (IDPs) have lived through are taking their toll.
MSF offers water and sanitation services, including building latrines and providing clean water to thousands of families currently living in the camps.
