UN Disburses $125 Million for the Global Humanitarian Crises

  • The United Nations issued $125 million on Tuesday to support underfunded humanitarian efforts.
  • Afghanistan and Yemen are the top recipients, receiving $20 million apiece.
  • Because of the generosity of many different donors, the fund can cover gaps and save lives.

The United Nations issued $125 million on Tuesday to support underfunded humanitarian efforts in 14 countries around the world, citing escalating needs.

Afghanistan and Yemen are the top recipients, receiving $20 million apiece. Burkina Faso and Myanmar are next, receiving $9 million each, followed by Mali, Haiti, and Venezuela, receiving $8 million each.

Humanitarian Crises

250 million people are expected to be impacted by conflicts, the environment, natural disasters, disease outbreaks, displacement, and other crises, according to additional funding announced by the United Nations Central Emergency Relief Fund.

The fund will give the Central African Republic and Mozambique $6.5 million, Cameroon and the Palestinian Territories $6 million, Malawi $4 million, activities supporting refugees in Bangladesh $8 million, and refugees in Uganda $6 million.

Martin Griffiths, the head of the U.N.’s humanitarian agency, said that because of the generosity of many different donors, the fund can cover gaps and save lives, but that individual contributors must also step up.

This year, more than $270 million has been allocated overall for underfunded crises, which is the highest figure since the fund’s inception in 2005. Millions of people would go hungry this year, according to U.N. deputy spokesperson Farhan Haq, if donors do not provide the remaining $39 billion needed to support the organization’s plea.

Due to a lack of money, the World Food Program was obliged to stop providing food assistance to an additional 2 million hungry individuals in Afghanistan this month, increasing the total number of Afghans who have lost help this year to 10 million.
