Madagascar regularly faces extreme weather events and a series of climate shocks, leaving communities in dire need of aid.
In early 2022, Médecins Sans Frontières launched an emergency response when Madagascar was struck by two devastating cyclones that caused severe destruction, damaging houses, health facilities, roads and crops.
We also responded to the consequences of the worst drought to hit the region in 30 years, the main priority being the diagnosis and treatment of malnutrition.
Our teams launched an emergency response, providing medical care, nutrition support, and water and sanitation services to people affected.
