The situation on site

Decades of lack of rainfall have turned many regions in southern Madagascar into deserts of dust. Cyclones repeatedly destroy the land. Crop yields are barely half of what they used to be. It is estimated that almost every second child is affected by malnutrition. If this is not recognized and treated in time, it has lifelong consequences.
