2011 East Africa Drought (Paperback)

High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles Since mid-July 2011, a severe drought has been affecting the entire East Africa region. Said to be "the worst in 60 years," the drought has caused a severe food crisis across Somalia, Ethiopia and Kenya that threatens the livelihood of more than 13.3 million people. Many refugees from southern Somalia have fled to neighboring Kenya and Ethiopia, where crowded, unsanitary conditions together with severe malnutrition have led to a large number of deaths. Other countries in and around the Horn of Africa, including Djibouti, Sudan, South Sudan and parts of Uganda, are also affected by a food crisis.
