Despite being crossed by several major rivers, including the Zambeze in the centre and the Limpopo in the south, as well as containing a number of lakes, Mozambique has been impacted by severe and increasingly frequent and prolonged droughts over the past 15 years, resulting in long-lasting pockets of hunger.
