Mayotte is experiencing a severe water crisis as water sources run dry and the distribution network in a poor state requiring urgent attention. Rains to replenish the sources not expected until November. Water cuts are common. In the face of this crisis MODEF has sent an urgent appeal to the French government to take immediate action to address this looming humanitarian, health, economic and food crisis. MODEF also calls for the activation of the agricultural disaster regime and full coverage of losses through national solidarity to save Mayotte Agriculture.
