The appeal has been reasonably well funded for this period in the year, with most sectors having received some contributions, though major gaps remain in the areas of mine action, emergency food security and malnutrition, emergency preparedness - particularly for emergency health services, disease surveillance, and coordination. A number of projects has been removed or modified, and a number of new emergency projects added, including a major food project from the World Food Programme (WFP), which takes the total appeal to US$ 89[1] million and brings the current funding percentage to 39%.
WHO estimates a total financial requirement of US$ 1.4 million to effectively carry out the
above mentioned activities. Specific project proposals are available upon request.
