The European Union announced €41 million in humanitarian aid for the Southern Africa and Indian Ocean region in 2025, including €17 million for Mozambique and one million for Angola.

The Directorate-General for European Civil Protection and Humanitarian Aid Operations (ECHO) indicates in a statement that “the European Commission will provide an initial humanitarian aid allocation of €41 million for the Southern Africa and Indian Ocean in 2025 – an area simultaneously facing natural hazards and conflict”.

The bulk of this funding from the European Union (EU) will go to Mozambique, which will receive €17 million to support the country’s efforts to respond to the consequences of tropical cyclones Chido, Dikeledi and Jude, which hit the country in December 2024 and January and March 2025 respectively, causing destruction, flooding and leaving families homeless.
