Food crisis in Guatemala
9 April 2010
UN: Lack of funding for Guatemalan food crisis appeal sparks concern at UN
UN: Guatemala Food Insecurity and Acute Malnutrition Appeal 2010 (6 March 2010)
I have to confess absolute ignorance about the drought affecting Guatemala. It is one of the poorest countries, whose population suffers from chronic malnutrition, and the current drought has exacerbated the situation. The UN had called for $34 million in aid, but less than 10% of that amount has been received so far.
