Mozambique
The main finding
In 75 of the 149 districts where people are recorded in food crisis, at most one organisation is listed. The largest is Cidade da Matola (Maputo), where 201,227 people are in food crisis and one organisation is listed.
Cidade da Matola·Thin coverage
The operational presence dataset lists organisations that reported activity through a country's coordination structures. Reporting is voluntary and incomplete, and small local organisations are the least likely to appear. A district showing few or no organisations may be well served by groups that never report. Please use the correction and declaration forms to tell us what we are missing.

The ten districts with the thinnest coverage
The table below gives the same figures as text.
National and local share by admin 1 region
Counted over district listings, so an organisation listed in three districts counts three times. Only regions with at least 5 listings whose organisation type is published are shown.
Thin coverage
Districts ranked by gap score: people in food crisis divided by the number of listed organisations plus one. A high score means a lot of recorded need and very few organisations listed.
