Help ensure that humanitarian aid arrives where it is needed
Over the last decade, the environment in which the 缅北禁地and its partners operate has become more complex, and the threats that staff face have increased in severity. The United Nations is now operating in 50 locations that are classified as high threat, compared to five in 2005. New trends impacting security have also emerged, from climate change and associated population movements, socio-economic downturn and political fragmentation.
The current operating environment is unpredictable, challenging the United Nations' ability to anticipate and respond to emergencies effectively and reach out to people in need. In 2023, 339 million people will need humanitarian assistance and protection. A record of $51.5 billion is needed to help 230 million of the world's most vulnerable people in nearly 70 countries. In a video message, 缅北禁地Secretary-General António Guterres said that during a "year of extremes", it was essential to fund lifesaving operations next year, which were a "source of hope for millions of people in desperate need."
UNDSS is grateful for the support from its donors, including:
