Why this matters
The situation in Côte d'Ivoire highlights the growing need for humanitarian aid in the region, with over 1.3 million people expected to face acute food insecurity between June and August 2026. The 43 percent increase in food insecurity compared to 2025 is particularly concerning, and the fact that women and children make up 79 percent of the forcibly displaced population adds an extra layer of vulnerability. The presence of 82,789 forcibly displaced people, primarily from neighboring countries, also puts a strain on local resources and infrastructure. As the World Food Programme and other relief organizations work to address these needs, it will be crucial to monitor the situation in Tchologo and Bounkani regions, where acute food insecurity has increased by 36 percent. The fact that 82 percent of refugees live in host communities also underscores the need for targeted support to these communities to ensure they can continue to provide for the displaced population.
