Venezuela

Venezuela faces several natural and socio-economic hazards linked to its geography, climate variability, and ongoing humanitarian crisis. Floods, droughts, and landslides frequently affect the country and contribute to significant humanitarian and food security needs, particularly among vulnerable populations.

Preparedness and response efforts in Venezuela are primarily delivered through humanitarian and food assistance programmes led by national authorities and international organizations. These interventions aim to address acute food insecurity and support populations affected by shocks such as floods and other climate-related events. However, available documentation mainly describes emergency response and assistance operations, with limited explicit evidence of a fully institutionalized national anticipatory action framework or forecast-based financing system.
