Horn of Africa Famine

Horn of Africa Famine 2011

The United Nations has declared a famine in two regions of southern Somalia owing to the worst drought in decades, and appealed for urgent resources to assist millions of people in desperate need of help.

"Every day of delay in assistance is literally a matter of life or death for children and their families in the famine-affected areas," said Mark Bowden, the UN Humanitarian Coordinator for Somalia.
