Africa-Press – Mozambique. <\/strong><\/span>About 1.4 million people are at risk of chronic food insecurity in Mozambique due to the combined effects of natural disasters, and the terrorist attacks in the northern province of Cabo Delgado.<\/p>\n

\u201cFrom the assessment that we made, we saw the possibility of 1.4 million people who are at risk of food insecurity, of which about 900,000 face chronic food insecurity in Cabo Delgado province because of the shocks it has been suffering which have been destroying its food reserves\u201d, announced the executive secretary of the Technical Secretariat for Food Security and Nutrition (SETSAN), Leonor Mondlane, on Monday in Maputo, at the opening of a meeting of the SETSAN Consultative Council.<\/p>\n

\u201cFortunately, we don\u2019t have a famine situation. As you heard recently, our country is off the list of countries susceptible to famine\u201d, added Mondlane during the one-day event, held under the theme \u2018Strengthening Resilience in Nutrition and Food Security on the African Continent\u2019.<\/p>\n

The SETSAN executive secretary pointed out that the monitoring the sector is conducting, which has already covered six of the country\u2019s 11 provinces, will make it possible to better assess the situation and provide appropriate assistance.<\/p>\n

Mondlane said that the situation should improve in the coming days due to several actions that are being developed in different parts of the country, including in places where the population is receiving various agricultural inputs from partners.<\/p>\n

She stressed that Mozambique is improving the fight against chronic malnutrition in children under five years of age, Since 2014, the chronic malnutrition rate among under-fives has fallen from 43 to 38 percent.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe chronic malnutrition situation in Mozambique is improving, but challenges remain. The rate has reduced, yes, but as you see, it is an indicator that we still need to improve. The northern zone is the most critical area. In Nampula 46.7 per cent of under fives are malnourished. In Cabo Delgado and Niassa the figure is 45 percent, and we have the national average of 38 percent. We have the best scenario in Maputo Province, where only eight per cent of the children are malnourished, which is good\u201d, Mondlane explained.<\/p>\n

The meeting brought together various public and private institutions to discuss the proposed national policy for food and nutritional security.<\/p>\n
