UNITED NATIONS, Aug. 7 (Xinhua) — Less than 17 percent of the $46 billion needed to meet global humanitarian needs in 2025 has been received so far, Deputy Spokesman for the UN Secretary-General Farhan Haq said at a daily briefing on Thursday.
“More than half a year has passed, and the situation with funding for humanitarian activities remains deplorable,” said F. Haq, citing data from the UN Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs (OCHA).
According to him, the amount of funding received to date is 40 percent less than for the same period last year.
The funding shortfall is a stark reminder that millions of vulnerable people will go hungry without the assistance they urgently need, the UN official added.
He noted that in June, faced with the largest funding cuts in the history of the international humanitarian system, OCHA launched a global appeal to help 114 million people, focusing on the most urgent needs as part of the broader 2025 Global Humanitarian Overview. –0–
