Vodafone Foundation 's Instant Network Emergency Response INER team have deployed to Mozambique.
More than 700,000 people have been affected by floods in Mozambique, with estimations that over half of those impacted are children. A national emergency has been declared, with homes and vital infrastructure destroyed, and tens of thousands of people finding refuge in emergency shelters.
Conditions are severe, with more rain expected to fall and dams already at capacity. Humanitarian partners are also warning of rising cases of malaria, diarrhoea and respiratory infections, alongside a high risk of cholera outbreak due to contaminated water and limited sanitation access.
