Published in : 1994 Available in : English The UN ACC/SCN decided to set up an information system to track the nutrition of refugees and displaced people. Distributing this information should help to bring action to improve the situation. This is the fifth of a regular series of reports, issued every two months. This report is the first in the series to include reports on some Asian refugees and displaced people. We have chosen to begin the Asia section with the relatively small population of Bhutanese refugees in Nepal and refugees from Myanmar in Bangladesh due to persistent reports of micronutrient deficiencies. As in the past, Southern Iraqi refugees in Iran are also included. Documents : RNIS_No_5.pdf (PDF, 728.76Kb) Originally posted at : UNSCN - Publications |
