The federal government has announced $23 million to support humanitarian needs in the Horn of Africa region amid multiple conflicts and climate change-related disasters.
The funding will go towards addressing critical needs like healthcare, food and clean water for vulnerable people including children, separated families and survivors of gender-based violence.
"Australia is gravely concerned by the deteriorating humanitarian situation in the Horn of Africa and is working with international partners to help the most vulnerable and address instability in the region," Foreign Affairs Minister Penny Wong said in a statement on Saturday.
