RI in the News - AP reports millions of refugees face hunger
12/21/2004
The Associated Press reports that around a million refugees could face hunger and malnutrition next year because of meager donations from governments of more prosperous countries. They noted that apart from UN warnings, non-U.N. aid agencies also have sounded the alarm.
"...Some have chastised the United Nations for failing to respond fast enough to crises. On Monday, U.S.-based Refugees International said the world body was moving too slowly to hand out food to people who fled the conflict in Ivory Coast."
