What Will Become of Us? Voices from around the world on drought and El Nino
Overview
About 60 million people across Southern Africa and the Horn, Central America, and the Pacific face worsening hunger and poverty due to droughts and crop failures in 2014-15 that have been exacerbated by the El Nino weather system in 2015-16. This number is likely to rise. The international response is working, but much more is needed and long-term solutions must be found.
This report gives a voice to some of the people Oxfam is working with in Ethiopia, Malawi, Zimbabwe, El Salvador and Papua New Guinea. They explain how they have lived through bad times before, but that this drought is much worse than previous ones.
