Key Issues:
US$1.2 million is urgently needed to cover the funding shortfalls for the procurement of ready-touse therapeutic food (RUTF) requirements for 2015.
There is a funding gap of US$23.5 million for the national measles vaccination campaign planned in October 2015.
Partner participation in the belg assessment team going to SNNPR is worryingly limited. The failed belg is expected to have the most severe impact on the food security in this predominantly belgdependent region.
