Drought Affected Parts Of Ethiopia, Kenya And Somalia - 27 January 2006
In Ethiopia, more than 1.75 million people are affected by the drought; in Kenya, 4.5 million people are affected by the shortage of water; and around 2 million vulnerable Somali children and women face serious food shortages. Due to the rapidly deteriorating situation, UNICEF urgently requires USD 16,393,747 (out of the total USD 69,266,330 requested for 2006) to carry out life-saving programmes for drought-affected children and women over the next three months. These will include therapeutic and supplementary feeding programmes, measles and vitamin A campaigns, water and sanitation programmes, child protection, and education.

Donor update - 4 June 2004
As mid-year approaches, the humanitarian situation in Somalia remains difficult. The country has some of the world's highest rates of infant and maternal illness and death, and severely limited access to basic services. Somali children and women continue to suffer from chronic food insecurity, severely worsened in some areas by drought, and fresh waves of displacement caused by inter- and intra-clan conflict. In anticipation of the possibility of failed or late 'Gu' rains (April/May), UNICEF is procuring emergency stocks to replenish supplies.  Some funding requests have been submitted, but an adequate response to the 2004 Appeal is essential in maintaining response for this and other emergency scenarios that may arise during the course of the year.
