The International Organization for Migration (IOM) reported that in 2025, it provided humanitarian assistance to 17.8 million people across 170 countries and territories. This aid included emergency shelter, health consultations, and water, sanitation, and hygiene services, with operations concentrated in regions affected by conflict and disaster.

Following these reports, the IOM issued an appeal for $100 million to protect 4.9 million people from the anticipated impacts of El Niño. The funding is intended for emergency planning, preparedness training, and the pre-positioning of relief supplies to mitigate risks from droughts, floods, and heatwaves expected to intensify through early 2007.
