Play Video: Sudan: "one of the ugliest" humanitarian situations - UNFPA Press Conference | United Nations

United Nations Population Fund (UNFPA) Arab States Regional Director, Laila Baker said that the war in Sudan is “one of the ugliest situations” she has ever witnessed in her 30 years of humanitarian work. UNFPA’s Arab States Regional Director, Laila Baker, briefed reporters today (13 Sep) on her recent visit to Sudan. She said, “If I describe to you the situation on the ground where women and girls have been stripped bare of all of their basic necessities. Picture thousands of women crowded into a shelter where they have no clean water, no hygiene, not enough food for their next meal, no medical care for those women who have been displaced, and we now have over ten million people displaced in Sudan alone, after 500 devastating days of conflict and war.’ Baker said, “For those women and girls, they are looking to the international community, and in particular, to UNFPA to provide for them.” The UNFPA official highlighted, “Slightly over half of the population, 26 million people strong, are now facing famine. For the 600,000 pregnant women, 18,000 are likely to die as a result of that famine, they don't know where their next meal is going to come from.” “And in providing for that level of devastation, 26 million people is roughly the population of Australia. You can understand the pressures that we're coming under,” Baker emphasized The Arab States Regional Director reiterated, “We need humanitarian access that is unhindered and unimpeded, something that is really problematic for us, and we've been trying our best to work with our partners on the ground to provide medical services where only one in four medical facilities is actually functioning.” “Eighty percent of the healthcare system has been damaged or destroyed entirely, and where large portions, especially in the west of the country are completely unsafe for humanitarian work. In fact, it's completely besieged at the moment,” she added. Baker added, “In order to address those, we need access. We need to be able to get goods and people and have free mobility to be able to provide the care. UNFPA will work tirelessly, as we have been in these 500 days, to make for sure that women and girls get as much service as they need.” The Regional Director said, “it is very urgently needed, one, to provide a cessation to the hostilities so that we can put a halt to the devastation. Two, to allow for humanitarian needs and humanitarian access unhindered and unimpeded, so that we can provide our mobile clinics, get people in to begin to rebuild the country.” And then, third, she concluded, “bring women and girls back into the fold as well, to not see them only as recipients, but also as the agents of change for that peace that they so desperately wish for.”

United Nations Video: How communications can stop a massacre: Lessons from Timor-Leste referendum | United Nations

Play Video: How communications can stop a massacre: Lessons from Timor-Leste referendum | United Nations

East Timor’s struggle to free itself from colonial rule by Portugal and then from violent occupation by Indonesia in 1976, came to a head in 1999 with a UN-organized referendum on 30 August. The voting gave the Timorese an historic opportunity to demonstrate their determination to become self-governing, despite an environment of violence and intimidation. The UN electoral mission established at that time, UNAMET, had to deploy creative approaches to fulfill its mandate. In this interview, Nick Birnback, former UNAMET’s communications team member recalls some of the most remarkable communication strategies and achievements of UNAMET, that was able to register 433,576 people for the referendum in just 22 days. Despite great fears of an armed attack on the day of the referendum he remembers the “huge queues of people waiting before sunrise, not wanting to miss the opportunity to vote.” However, after the choice for independence was announced the country was plunged into violence and chaos. Incessant gunfire had prompted many Timorese to seek refuge under the UN flag, scaling the walls topped with barbed wire of the UNAMET compound in Dili. In the days that followed, UN staff and displaced Timorese were under siege. At that point, according to Nick Birnback, keeping East Timor in the headlines was crucial to preventing a massacre, including of national and international UN staff. He also explains the decision made by many international staff to volunteer to stay at the compound, despite the evacuation that had been initiated at that point. In a recent speech at East-Timor’s parliament, the UN Secretary-General, said that “the women and men of UNAMET showed great dedication and professionalism by organizing a large-scale referendum, in a short period of time and despite intimidation and threats. After the Popular Consultation, and when violence was spreading, they once again demonstrated enormous courage and a sense of mission”.
