This report identifies the regions of the world that were most severely affected by droughts in 2023–2024, with some continuing into 2025. It explores the impacts experienced in those areas, investigates the underlying vulnerabilities of affected populations, and examines the climatic factors that contributed to the severity of the droughts’ effects. Global droughts since 2023 have had widespread impacts that exposed and exacerbated existing social, economic, and environmental vulnerabilities. Understanding which areas and populations were most affected, and why, is essential for informing future mitigation strategies, improving resilience planning, and supporting equitable policy responses. By examining the intersection of climatic drivers and underlying vulnerabilities, this report aims to reinforce the continued importance of improving drought monitoring, planning, and response capabilities, while providing actionable insights for researchers, policymakers, and humanitarian organizations working to address the consequences of climate extremes.
