Ethiopia

Ethiopia faces a wide array of humanitarian problems, including escalating food prices, internally displaced populations, an influx of refugees, and drought-related public health threats like acute watery diarrhea. Some five million people are at risk. Action Against Hunger maintains nutrition, food security, and water, sanitation and hygiene programs throughout the country. More than 150,000 drought-affected individuals have been assisted by Action Against Hunger teams so far this year, and we expect to support more than 285,000 people by the end of 2011.
