Christian Aid's Head of Humanitarian Division, Nick Guttmann, speaks about his recent visit to north eastern Kenya and Ethiopia. He describes the situation in Kenya, Ethiopia and Somalia, and the worst drought in 60 years. He calls for peace and security in Somalia if the needs of the people are to be met. He speaks about the essential work of our partners in northern Kenya; providing people with trucked water, repairing bore holes and the successes of building small reservoirs in advance of the drought. Thanks to supporters for all their donations, and encouragement to those who have not donated to give as there is still more need. Christian Aid is a member of the ACT Alliance, and is working through experienced ACT partners on the ground in Kenya, Ethiopia and Somalia.
