12. 1. Poor biomass production affecting pastoral situation will result in an early
and prolonged lean season that may further accelerate the disruption of
livelihoods in the Sahelian-Saharan belt.
2. Civil insecurity and conflicts are among the factors that continue to limit
access to food in the most affected areas (Mali, Niger, Nigeria and Chad)
3. Displacement, involving nearly 2.5 million of internally displaced people,
4. Increasing of staple food prices, especially the increase of cereal prices
compared to the five-year average, further impair the overall food
security and nutrition situation in the region.
5. Acute malnutrition is aggravated particularly by poor access to health
services and other factors, such as limited access to water and sanitation
and childhood diseases as diarrhea, acute respiratory infections and
malaria.

24. 6. RECOMMENDATIONS

25. The Governments and
partners
 Provide humanitarian assistance and give priority to
the populations in CH phase 3, 4 and 5 in order to save
their lives, protect their livelihoods as well as prevent
loss of assets and reduce acute malnutrition, attention
should be given to Cabo Verde and Mauritania;
 Implement interventions aimed at supporting the
resilience of people facing stressed food insecurity (CH
Phase 2) e.g. by supporting livestock productivity and
increasing the asset levels of the population
are recommended to

26. The Governments and
partners
are recommended to ;
• implement immediate interventions to address the
current and projected food and nutrition insecurity,;
• Priority should be given to the populations and
countries most affected during the period October-
December 2017 in order to prevent a deterioration
of food insecurity during the lean season (June-
August 2018).

27. CILSS, Governments and
partners
 Strengthen the information system to collect the
data required for the different cycles of the
analysis.
 Strengthen the capacity of national and regional
members and units of the Cadre Harmonisé.
 Include financial resources in the national budget
for the organization of national workshops on
the Cadre Harmonisé
