Situation Report No. 4 – Tajikistan – Cold Wave/Compound crisis (25 February 2008)
This report is based on information provided by the Rapid Emergency Assessment and Coordination Team
(REACT), the Committee of Emergency Situations and the Office of the UN Resident Coordinator in Tajikistan.
HIGHLIGHTS
On 18 February, an appeal for USD 25,192,839 was launched by the humanitarian community in
Tajikistan to support the Government in addressing the needs of two million people already affected by
the compound crisis.
The Central Emergency Response Fund (CERF) approved several grants for a total of USD 5.2 million
covering five projects in emergency energy, health, WASH (water, sanitation and hygiene) and food
security sectors.
The UN Resident Coordinator, in consultation with the REACT members, has decided to use the cluster
approach to further improve response coordination mechanisms and strengthen the existing sectoral
groups.
