HIGHLIGHTS

  • Following four seasons of below average rainfall, communities across the Horn of Africa are experiencing one of the worst droughts in recent history. In Djibouti, more than 72,000 people, including 29,000 children, are estimated to be in need of humanitarian assistance in 2022 due to the devastating impact of the drought.

  • UNICEF works closely with the Government of Djibouti, partners and communities to provide access to safe water for drinking and domestic purposes to over 72,000 people, deliver nutrition assistance to 6,000 children, and maintain health, education and child protection services in affected areas. UNICEF will also help build national and local capacities for emergency preparedness and response.

  • UNICEF is appealing for US $2.5 million to meet the needs of children and families in 2022. These funds will allow UNICEF to provide urgent multi-sectoral services to the most vulnerable women, girls and boys, especially in hard-to-reach areas, while also mitigating the long-term effects of the drought.
