To be able to assess results of UNICEF more in detail the examples of specific crises presented below provide figures from 2022 as the narrative report for 2023 has not yet been published. Country specific results for 2022: - In Afghanistan, UNICEF provided over 660,000 children aged under-five with Severe Acute Malnutrition (SAM) treatment services and a total of 4,985 children aged 6-59 months with Moderate Acute Malnutrition (MAM) with Ready to Use Therapeutic Food (RUTF). - In Bangladesh, UNICEF was the first UN agency on the ground to respond to the worst floods in north-eastern Bangladesh in 122 years. UNICEF provided humanitarian assistance to over 1,7 million people in the areas of WASH, CP, Health, Nutrition and Education. - In the Democratic Republic of Congo, through UNICEF's Rapid Response (UniRR) mechanism 54 health care structures in Ituri and North Kivu provinces were supported in the provision of over 36 000 primary health care consultations to people in need. - In Ethiopia, over 1,500 000 people were provided a safe water supply through rehabilitation/expansion of safe water supply and over 2.5 million children and women received primary health care services through UNICEF support. In the Somali region UNICEF constructed a One-Stop Centre which provided comprehensive GBV response services to over 5,000 people. - In Ukraine, UNICEF worked together with partners to train more than 99,000 teachers on Mental Health and Psychosocial Support, social and emotional learning, and life skills education through courses, sessions, and tailored mentorship programmes. - In Venezuela, over 390,000 primary caregivers of children aged 0 to 23 months received infant and young child feeding counselling. In addition over 400,000 people accessed a sufficient quantity of safe water for drinking and domestic needs. The results provided by UNICF are in line with the needs in several challenging crises. The HAC's are co-developed and co-existing with the Humanitarian Response Plan (HRP) and based on thorough needs analysis along with data collection. UNICEF works to flexibly adapt to emerging needs as well as shifting needs based on location and flexible funding of the HAC's is key to this endeavour.
