Description

UNICEF's Humanitarian Action Report 2010 examines crises that require exceptional support - where urgent action is imperative to save lives, protect children against the worst forms of violence and abuse, and ensure access to water and sanitation, health care, nutrition and education. The 28 countries featured in the report include those engaged in the 2010 Consolidated Appeals Process (CAP) as well as countries in other protracted crises where high levels of chronic vulnerability, life-threatening undernutrition and limited access to basic services are compounded by localized emergencies, population movements or other obstacles to long-term recovery. Regional and global support - including the critical need for early warning and preparedness in advance of new crises - are highlighted in dedicated chapters.
