Description 

Significant and widespread flooding in Bolivia has seriously affected over 69,000 families, according to initial estimates of the Government of Bolivia. Indications point to a worsening humanitarian situation, with thousands in need of aid. CIDA's contribution is helping the World Food Programme (WFP) to provide emergency food aid to those affected by the floods. Activities include the distribution of family rations to food-insecure households, including families sheltered in camps; training of mothers in nutrition, child care and health/hygiene, and; awareness activities to ensure that biscuits are targeted to the appropriate age groups and distributed and used correctly. The operation is expected to reach an estimated 65,000 beneficiaries.
