KEY FIGURES 1.5M people may be exposed to flooding between April-June in Colombia 80K people to receive support from CERF interventions in Sucre, Venezuela 4.4K people displaced due to armed attacks in Artibonite, Haiti on 2 May COLOMBIA: FLOODING Seasonal forecasts indicate elevated flooding risk across Colombia during the April–June rainy season, with an estimated 1.5 million people exposed to flooding in 276 municipalities across 25 departments, particularly in the Pacific, Andean, Caribbean and Orinoquía regions. Exposure is expected to peak in May and June, with priority areas including Chocó, Valle del Cauca, Cauca, the Magdalena River basin, and parts of the Amazon and Orinoquía, where river overflow and sustained rainfall are likely to drive impacts. Anticipated impacts include population displacement, deteriorating living conditions, and increased humanitarian needs - particularly in already vulnerable departments such as Chocó, Bolívar, Córdoba and Nariño - while risks to water, sanitation, food security and public health (including water-borne and vector-borne diseases) are also expected to rise. BELIZE: DROUGHT Belize has activated its Anticipatory Action mechanism for drought following forecasts indicating a high likelihood of below-average rainfall linked in part to evolving El Niño conditions. The Government, in partnership with the National Meteorological Service and the World Food Programme (WFP), will provide anticipatory cash assistance to pre-identified farmers in drought-prone districts, including Orange Walk, Corozal, and Cayo, enabling early investment in water storage, irrigation, and drought-resistant inputs. This proactive approach reflects growing efforts across the region to act on climate forecasts ahead of shocks, with similar anticipatory action frameworks already activated across the Dry Corridor in Central America to mitigate drought-related food security risks and protect vulnerable livelihoods. HAITI: VIOLENCE & DISPLACEMENT Violence in Haiti’s Artibonite department continues to drive displacement and heighten humanitarian needs. On 2 May, armed attacks in the municipalities of Dessalines and Petite Rivière displaced an estimated 4,419 people (1,166 households), with the majority seeking shelter with host families, further straining already overstretched communities. This is the latest in a persistent wave of escalating insecurity and human rights concerns across the country. According to the United Nations Integrated Office in Haiti (BINUH), at least 1,642 people were killed and 745 injured between January and March 2026, with violence increasingly spreading beyond Port-au-Prince to departments such as Artibonite and Centre. While security operations have contained some expansion of armed violence in parts of the capital, widespread abuses, including killings, kidnappings, and sexual violence, persist in some areas, while ongoing insecurity continues to constrain humanitarian access and response efforts. VENEZUELA: WATER SUPPLY Humanitarian partners are scaling up the response to the water emergency in Sucre state following the February earthquake that severely disrupted the Turimiquire water system, affecting more than 140,000 households. To address critical needs, the United Nations Emergency Relief Coordinator allocated US$2 million from the UN Global Emergency Fund (CERF) to support coordinated WASH and health interventions, targeting nearly 80,000 people. This allocation complements a US$1 million contribution from the Venezuela Humanitarian Fund (VHF), aimed at expanding coverage and reinforcing a sustained and integrated humanitarian response.
