USAID Bureau for Humanitarian Assistance: Development & Disaster Risk Reduction: Middle East, North Africa, & Europe - Fiscal Year (FY) 2020
Format
The Middle East, North Africa, and Europe (MENAE) face a wide range of natural hazards such as droughts, earthquakes, floods, wildfires, and extreme winter weather in addition to protracted conflicts that significantly impact humanitarian conditions. Limited governmental disaster management capacity in some MENAE countries also compounds the risks associated with natural disasters, while environmental degradation and rapid urban growth in some countries have led to overcrowding and settlement in hazard-prone areas.
USAID’s Bureau for Humanitarian Assistance (USAID/BHA) provided approximately $7.2 million in FY 2020 to support disaster risk reduction (DRR) activities in the MENAE region.
