Lean Season Food Insecurity Response Plan
Malawi, Muona, Nsanje District, 24 March 2020
In March 2019, rural farmers in Muona have seen their crops washed away by Cyclone Idai. WFP responded at that time with immediate support.
However, as food stocks depleted and as the next harvest is only expected in March 2020, WFP in Malawi has distributed monthly cash transfers to the most vulnerable so they can buy food and boost the local economy.

As prevention measures for COVID-19, the beneficiaries are called by small group to facilitate distancing, received sensitization messages on the virus through the megaphones, are asked to wash hands with soap before and after getting their entitlements. In addition, staff and volunteers in charge of the distributions are using protecting masks and gloves.
