September 30, 2009 - The Karamoja region of North-Eastern Uganda is facing a severe humanitarian situation, following a drought, which has reduced agricultural output to an estimated 30 percent of normal levels. CIDA's contribution is helping the World Food Programme (WFP) to reduce and/or stabilize acute malnutrition for 970,000 vulnerable people in Karamoja. Activities under this operation include general food assistance, as well as and supplementary and therapeutic feeding to treat persons who have already become moderately and severely malnourished.
