Agencies coordinating efforts to help flood victims

    Meanwhile, UN-OCHA said that the frequency of major flood events in Sudan has underscored the need for strengthening countrywide flood preparedness and “response mechanisms”. UN agencies such as WFP and UNDP have expressed their willingness to assist in such efforts.

OCHA will serve as a channel for cash contributions for immediate relief needs.
