Health Cluster Monthly Bulletin Mozambique (April 2026)
Country: Mozambique Sources: Health Cluster, World Health Organization Please refer to the attached file. Mozambique continues to face a complex humanitarian crisis characterized by the overlapping impacts of climaterelated shocks and armed conflict, significantly affecting the health and well-being of vulnerable populations. In 2026, floods in the central and southern provinces resulted in population displacement, damage to health infrastructure, and an increased risk of waterborne disease outbreaks, disrupting the continuity of essential health services. At the same time, insecurity in Cabo Delgado continues to drive displacement and place additional strain on already fragile health systems. Humanitarian needs remain high, with priority given to the provision of primary health care, emergency services, mental health support, and assistance to displaced populations and host communities. In this context, Health Cluster partners have maintained a coordinated response to ensure the delivery of essential health services, with a focus on integrated approaches including mobile clinics, outbreak response, sexual and reproductive health services, and water, sanitation, and hygiene (WASH) interventions. However, significant challenges persist, particularly in terms of access, resource availability, and the need to strengthen monitoring and reporting mechanisms. This bulletin provides an overview of the activities and achievements of Health Cluster partners during April 2026, highlighting collective efforts to respond to urgent needs and support the recovery of affected communities in the northern region (conflict) and southern region (floods).
