February 2022 - The crisis in the Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC) is characterized by inter-ethnic conflict and widespread human rights abuses, including sexual violence. In 2022, 27 million people are in need of humanitarian assistance in the DRC, a 7.4% increase from 2021. The DRC is home to the largest global food crisis, with an unprecedented 27 million people severely food insecure. It is also home to the largest internally-displaced persons population in Africa with 5.5 million displaced people. Additional population movements are also expected in 2022, creating significant needs in protection, livelihoods and food security. These needs are worsened by the ongoing impacts of the coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic, other health epidemics, increased violence across eastern provinces and political uncertainty.
