Breaking the Cycle of Cholera in Yemen
Communique from “Breaking the Cycle of Cholera in Yemen” Roundtable at the High-Level Pledging Event for the Humanitarian Crisis in Yemen, Geneva, 3 April 2018.
UK Minister of State Alistair Burt and Under-Secretary-General for Humanitarian Affairs and Emergency Relief Coordinator Mark Lowcock have co-hosted a key discussion at the High Level Pledging Event for the Humanitarian Crisis in Yemen which will accelerate the international response to tackling cholera.
Today’s event, hosted by the UN-UK, offered an opportunity to establish a shared understanding of the crisis and accelerate the planning of our response. We agreed on the urgent need to finalise an integrated cholera response plan and on the importance of a fully funded 2018 Yemen Humanitarian Response Plan.
