Madagascar is facing a dual situation, with an improved but still fragile nutritional situation in the Great South, that require a better focus on the links between humanitarian action and resilience and development program, and a new humanitarian situation in the Southeast, with acute malnutrition rate above 15% in some districts which require the deployment of humanitarian actors, programmes and funds.
In the Southeast, resource mobilization is still a challenge, including to secure access in hard-to-reach health centers and community sites, and to ensure the availability of necessary data for an improved surveillance system.
In the Great South, as development partners are starting new program on health, food or wash systems, coordination will be key to ensure leverage on impact and reduced the negative climate change consequences on the nutrition situation in this prone to drought area.
As Madagascar cluster/sector strategy focus on localization, with an increase leadership of local authorities and technical services, their capacity strengthening will have to be sustain with the support of all cluster partners at local level
Early warning system still needs to be improved to ensure immediate response scale up when needed, and better targeting of the most impacted area.
