OCHA Country Operations Horn of Africa
The humanitarian situation in the Horn of Africa requires coordination, advocacy and assessment capacities on different levels. Competent coordination capacities with appropriate staff and financial means are needed to address the complex situation - with persisting needs, the early recovery component, and an important number of humanitarian players, difficult humanitarian access and sometimes the challenging cooperation with the respective governments. OCHA is mandated with these tasks by the international community.
