Cabo Delgado province, already one of the most vulnerable and poverty-stricken provinces of Mozambique, has been affected since late 2017 by armed conflict perpetrated by Non-state armed groups which continued to destabilise pockets of territory, generating new waves of displacement and constantly undermining the provision of humanitarian assistance.

Mozambique faces multiple shocks, including the conflict in Northern Mozambique, frequent natural hazards and disease outbreaks. The international community has been working to address the crisis, restore peace, and stabilize the province. Humanitarian efforts are underway to provide aid and support to the displaced populations, while security forces are engaging in counter-insurgency operations to quell the violence. Alongside these efforts, there is a growing emphasis on long-term development programs to promote sustainable economic growth and improve the livelihoods of the affected communities.

ACF has since been implementing its humanitarian response with an integrated, multi-sectoral approach, addressing WASH, Health and nutrition, Food Security & Livelihoods amongst the Mozambican Internally Displaced Persons (IDPs) in camp and non-camp settings, as well as returnees and host communities. In 2025, ACF is willing to continue the humanitarian intervention in the areas still presenting urgent needs but also focusing on post-emergency / recovery interventions.
