Since 2019, WFP has been working with the Government of Mozambique to introduce anticipatory actions based on a forecast-based financing mechanism. Mozambique is improving its forecast systems to anticipate climate shocks and to prepare the Government and communities. WFP is sharing the lessons learned of its partnership with the Government for the implementation of anticipatory actions.

Mozambique has faced a wide range of climate shocks in recent years. It is crucial to improve forecasting systems to anticipate climate shocks and prepare the Government and communities, managing climate-related risks and strengthening efforts to adapt to the climate crisis. WFP is sharing the lessons learned of its successful partnership with the Government to enhance the implementation of anticipatory action. This partnership has enabled to expand seasonal drought forecasting and strengthen the country's provision of climate services and information.
