Emergency response to most critical health needs of the population affected by Anbar crisis The conflict has rendered access to health facilities very difficult, particularly for the most vulnerable such as elderly and patients suffering from chronic diseases that are unable to get their medications and are at high risk of having complications from of the chronic health conditions not properly managed. This is also compounded by the limited number of the few health facilities that are still working but are no longer are no longer able to provide even lifesaving interventions.  The situation is compounded by the fact Anbar had already some of the worst health indicators in the country even before the current crisis, as well as the low immunization coverage rates for measles and polio.

The three agencies estimate that 100,000 IDPs and 400,000 individuals in host communities will benefit from the services and supplies.

In particular, UNFPA (14-RR-FPA-002) will procure and provide essential reproductive health kits and supplies to health partners and district health facilities.  UNFPA will also provide 5,000 dignity kits to be distributed in coordination with other NFI packages by IOM and UNHCR.

General cash/food distribution in response to food insecurity generated by the coffee rust crisis in Guatemala WFP is targeting 10 departments in Guatemala identified in the Emergency Food Security Assessment as the most affected due to coffee rust and dry spells.  Using CERF funding, WFP proposes to provide a combination of uncondiational cash and general food distributions to 11,000 of the most food insecure households (55,000 beneficiaries).  The response is timed to coincide with the start of the lean period between June and August in which the affected households will fall into high risk of acute malnutrition due to depletion of food stocks and high food prices in the market.  Cash transfers will take place in June when basic grains are cheaper and more accessible to beneficiaries while in-kind food distribution will be implemented in July/August.  A dual delivery modality will allow beneficiaries to diversify their food intake by purchasing fresh products in the market and receiving in-kind when access to staples are constrained.
To support the recovery of means of livelihood of families affected by floods in order to ensure food security FAO’s main objective in its response to severe floods in Paraguay, is to restore subsistence food production for the most vulnerable affected households focusing on indigenous and Creole communities.
