2015 CERF underfunded emergencies (UFE): 2nd round allocation

As of 5 August 2015, in US$ million

A sound humanitarian investment

The Emergency Relief Coordinator set aside US$70 million from the United Nations Central Emergency Response Fund (CERF) for chronically
underfunded aid operations to assist millions of people forced from their homes by violence and instability. The allocations from CERFs Underfunded
Emergencies Window, now totalling $168.5 million in 2015, are a last resort and present a life-line for some of the most vulnerable populations around
the world in protracted and chronically underfunded crises.
