UNICEF Chad Situation Report 24 August 2012 UNICEF Chad Situation Report 24 August 2012 Highlights For 2012, the annual caseload of severe acute malnutrition (SAM) across the Sahel Band was estimated at 127,300 children under five years of age based on August 2011 nutrition survey results ; As of August 2012, 85,937 cases of SAM have been admitted for treatment (67.5%). As the number of implementation sites and number of admissions continue to increase, and GAM rate is 18.9% in June 2012 SMART survey across the Sahel belt, UNICEF estimates that the number of expected cases for treatment of severe acute malnutrition may exceed 2012 original. In June of 2012, data collection was completed for the UNICEF supported Sahel Band Nutrition Survey. The results show a continuing nutritional emergency with 9 out the 11 total regions with a prevalence of global acute malnutrition over 15%. A slight decline in admissions for severe acute malnutrition (SAM) between June and July 2012 (12,305 in July versus 15,888 in June 2012) An additional 11 outpatient therapeutic program (OTP) centres were opened between June and July 2012. UNICEF is currently supporting 345 centers in the Sahel belt of which there are 31 inpatient facilities (IPFs) for treatment of SAM with complications and 314 OTPs for outpatient treatment. On-going general government workers strike is affecting most of basic social and administrative sectors in the country. As of August 1st 2012, one thousand two hundreds and seventy five (1660) students registered for the catch up classes in the three schools of Mao Centre (692 students registered), Mao Moto (593), and Al-Fallah (375), which are the three targeted schools in Mao where the project) is being piloted Heavy rains provoked end of July / early August floods in Sila , Salamat, Lac and Mayo Kebi East. An estimated 10,000 people are affected and an evaluation mission is planned by the government under the direction of the office of the President with the support of UNICEF in N'Djamena and the flooded district led by the ministry of Urbanism. After the evaluation and mapping of the flooded areas we will be able to coordinate a holistic response. Biltine, July 2012, ©UNICEF/Ferreiro 1 1.

Children under 18 represent 59% of the population and face serious survival and development challenges. In addition to the current alarming nutrition crisis, Chad has recurrent outbreaks of epidemics – including measles, meningitis, polio and cholera, which remain a major public health concern. About 40% of children under five are affected by stunting. Malnutrition is also a chronic problem (including micronutrient deficiencies) in the country including the Sahel belt. 2. Inter-agency collaboration UNICEF is engaged in working with OCHA, others UN agencies and NGOs to foster the Transformative Agenda (TA) in Chad. UNICEF has dedicated cluster coordination staffs and emergency specialists for WASH, Nutrition, Education and Child Protection sectors. Cluster and Inter-cluster coordination meetings continue to be held on a regular basis, although access to reliable and timely data continues to be a challenge. 2 3. Emergency response 3.1.
