$104 MILLION IN ASSISTANCE NEEDED FOR NEPAL IN 2008
Abstract:
The United Nations launched an appeal last week requesting over $104 million in support of humanitarian, early recovery and development activities in Nepal in 2008.The Common Appeal for Transition Support (CATS) for 2008 contains 61 projects that will address urgent needs in food and nutrition, protection, health, disaster preparedness and response. It will also allow aid workers to assist internally displaced populations, refugees and children affected by armed conflict.Nepal is a country in transition, slowly emerging from a conflict lasting for more than a decade that displaced up to 70,000 people. Even though the conflict officially ended in November 2006 when the Government of Nepal and the Communist Party of Nepal-Maoist (CPN-Maoist) signed a comprehensive peace agreement, bombings, killings, abductions, demands for ransom and other forms of threats aimed at political opponents and civilian populations continue to hinder the ability of the state to deliver basic services in the country.
