UN Arrives In Drought-Affected Marshall Islands

UN Disaster Assessment Team Arrives In Drought-Affected Marshall Islands

New York, May 10 2013 - A United Nations disaster assessment team has arrived in the Marshall Islands to help the Government respond to a severe drought affecting its northern islands, the Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs (OCHA) said today.

Assessments are ongoing in the country, where a state of disaster was declared on 7 May, according to a report issued by the OCHA Regional Office for the Pacific.

Speaking to reporters in Geneva, OCHA spokesperson Jens Laerke said assessments from four atolls, with an estimated population of 1,500 people, found that most of the domestic water tanks were completely empty and water from wells was unsafe to drink due to bacterial contamination and high levels of salt.

Most of the installations for water purification and desalination were operating below capacity, he added.

In addition, food crops, which were mainly breadfruit and banana, were also reportedly devastated due to the drought.

The lack of clean drinking water is of acute humanitarian concern, and children are particularly vulnerable, said Mr. Laerke.

Two Government ships to the north-east and north-west of the Marshall Islands had begun transporting full water containers, hygiene kits and other relief items to nearly 600 families in the worst-affected communities.

There is a high likelihood that drought conditions will remain through July, Mr. Laerke stated. It will take several months of normal rainfall for groundwater to be replenished and longer still for food crops to recover.

The Government will receive an initial OCHA emergency cash grant of $50,000 to assist with the immediate response efforts.

Health care exhibition attracts global players

Posted on by

Minister of Health Dr. Abdullah Al-Rabeeah will open the Saudi Health Exhibition and Conference 2013, the largest international health care event in the Kingdom, at the Riyadh International Convention and Exhibition Center today. The three-day show has attracted more than 300 exhibitors from 34 countries. The show will provide a dedicated platform for key industry players to focus on the leading trends and developments within the $ 20 billion Saudi health care industry. With a net exhibition space of 5,500 square meters, the exhibition will concurrently host seven Continuous Medical Education-accredited conferences, which would include a Saudi Radiology Technologists Conference, Medical Laboratories Conference, Cardiology Conference, Biomedical Engineering Conference, Executive Nursing Conference, Imaging Administration Conference and Non-Communicable Diseases Conference. Over 1,000 delegates are expected to attend the exhibition, which is being jointly organized by Informa Life Sciences Exhibitions, organizers of the worlds most important health care exhibition Arab Health, and Riyadh Exhibitions Company (REC), organizers of the Saudi Medicare Exhibition for the last 15 years. Dr. Saleh Al-Mazrou, undersecretary to the Ministry of Health for supplies and engineering affairs, said the event aims to support the health sector through the participation of specialists, and provide opportunities for networking and accessing products, services and solutions offered by international companies. He said the conference will have several sessions and lectures by experts and specialists to highlight various topics. The Saudi Commission for Health Specialties has approved 30 hours of continuing medical training for the delegates taking part in the conference, he added. He said the conference was an opportunity to review the systems and infrastructure and facilities for the health care sector. The presence of many visitors and exhibitors from all over the world would also facilitate the development of joint business opportunities. It would also allow direct access to the latest developments in the field of medical industries around the world, establish strategic partnerships between specialized medical sectors at local and international levels, and bridge the gap between consumers and manufacturers. Kamil Al-Jawhari, project manager of the show, said: Saudi Health will gather the biggest names and organizations in the Saudi health care industry, making it the definitive networking platform among health care professionals in the Kingdom. Moreover, specialists, suppliers and other key global industry players will be attending the event to discuss the latest market insight, technological breakthroughs and best practices. The event will surely be a major boost to the Saudi health care sector, complementing the Saudi governments continuing thrust to enhance the quality of health care services across the Kingdom. We are inviting all medical professionals and health care companies and investors in the Kingdom to take advantage of this exclusive opportunity to meet and interact with industry giants in the regional and global health care sector. In line with Informa Life Sciences and RECs philosophy of exhibition with education, he pointed out that Saudi Health offers a comprehensive multi-tracked congress including a diverse range of conferences covering a broad range of specific medical disciplines. Key global issues that will be debated at the conferences include imaging and diagnostics, medical laboratories, biomedical engineering, nursing, primary health care, rehabilitation and trauma.
