🌞Curious about #ElNino ? 📩

El Niño is not just a climate shift! With warmer ocean temperatures, it ignites global weather chaos.

In #Zimbabwe 🇿🇼 and southern #Africa , it sparks drought, threatening #agriculture and communities, risking food production 🌍. #ClimateAction

Even urban areas aren't spared from the impact of the #ElNino -induced drought.

Together with Mercy Corps, World Food Programme is providing cash assistance to vulnerable families, ensuring they can weather the storm.

Grateful for the support from Swiss Development and Cooperation. 🌱💰🇨🇭

Since 2019, World Food Programme has been providing cash-based transfers to food-insecure urban households in Zimbabwe.

This allows recipients to access nutritious food & combat climate shocks like El Niño ⛈️

However, with depleting funds, families like Sarudzai's have to ration their meals⬇️
