Cote d'Ivoire |
The political stalemate in the West Africa's nation of Côte d'Ivoire since the re-run of the presidential election was conducted on 28 November 2010 has been posing humanitarian concerns not only in Côte d'Ivoire but in the region as well. The country's Independent Electoral Commission had declared the opposition candidate Alassane Ouatarra the winner of the run off on 2 December 2010 but was overturned by the country's Constitutional Council which announced the incumbent President Gbagbo the winner though the international community including the UN recognized the victory of the opposition candidate. Since the two opposing candidates have taken oaths of office in different locations on 4 December 2010 and forming parallel governments in Côte d'Ivoire, there have been protests in the country even before and after the presidential election run-off. The situation has affected movement of people and goods within the country thereby leading to increase in cost of living as prices of food ingredients have soared. The fear of violence has also led to the movement of some people into neighbouring Liberia and Guinea Conakry. An estimated 4,000 people had entered Liberia with new arrivals reported in villages along the border at a rate now of around 150 people per day. Meanwhile in Guinea, the number of newly registered Ivorian refugees in the southeast of the country is stable at some 186 people. As the political solution is being sought to the stalemate, there is the fear of increased population movement from Côte d'Ivoire into Guinea, Liberia as well as Burkina Faso, Ghana and Mali to some extent in the coming days and this may lead to humanitarian needs in these countries. |

Colombia |
The weather phenomenon La Ni?a has had an enormous effect across Colombia since its development by mid year of 2010. Since March, it has brought rains above historical records, causing landslides, flash floods, breakage of barriers, and therefore ongoing floods in 28 departments and 561 municipalities around the country. Thus far, there are some 257,849 affected families (1,211,146 persons), 208 injured, 139 deaths, 23 missing people, and 204,794 damaged homes. The more impacted departments are Bolivar, with 264,000 affected people, followed by Magdalena with 161,000, C?rdoba with 151,000 and Sucre with 107,000.
Unfortunately, the Colombian Institute of Hydrology, Meteorology and Environmental Studies forecasts that La Ni?a phenomenon and its strong rains will continue until the first trimester of 2011. This could mean the overlapping of the rainy seasons of 2010 with the first rainy season of 2011 (March-April-May).
On 18 November, the Minister of Justice, German Vargas Lleras, declared a state of public calamity in 28 of the 32 Departments of the country. The government hopes to facilitate the gathering of additional resources, as the country?s capabilities have been overloaded. This declaration also fastens the processes to receive international aid and supports subjects such as housing and agriculture. |
