The drought in the Sahel region has led to severe food and water shortages, significantly impacting agriculture and livestock, which are vital for the local economy and livelihoods. This has resulted in increased malnutrition and health issues among the population, particularly among children. Additionally, the drought exacerbates conflict over scarce resources, leading to displacement and social instability.
