Drought Drives Angolans to Namibia

Amnesty International explains that the drought, worsened by the El Niño phenomenon, is forcing thousands of Angolans—particularly women and children—to seek refuge in Namibia, where they face abuse and undergo forced deportation. These displaced individuals live in dire conditions, often homeless or crammed into makeshift shelters, with fears of detention and expulsion. In 2026, Namibian authorities announced the deportation of more than a thousand Angolans back to their homeland. The report emphasizes the urgent need for a human rights-based approach, including legal protections for those affected by climate disasters, as over 11.1 million Angolans depend on agriculture. Meanwhile, southern Africa is suffering from severe droughts and intense heat waves that threaten food and water security.
