Support UNICEF in the Horn of Africa

Target: UNICEF
Region: Horn of Africa
Petition Background (Preamble):
The Horn of Africa - Ethiopia, Somalia, Kenya, Djibouti and Eritrea - is currently facing the worst drought it has experienced in 60 years. This has brought on extreme famine and dug the area deeper into poverty.
Violence and conflict in the countries have also led to internal turmoil, corrupting the government. Without stable governments, there is no hope for these countries to get back on their feet anytime soon.

We, the undersigned, call on the UN branch of UNICEF to continue their hard work in the Horn of Africa:

In their efforts of creating refugee camps together with UNHCR; and
In their efforts of restoring the Horn of Africa back to a peaceful, crop and livestock producing area.
