  • Ifrc.Org Conclusion
    CHUKOTKA, KAMCHATKA AND 26 August 1999 MAGADAN (FAR NORTH-EASTERN RUSSIA): CRITICALLY ISOLATED COMMUNITIES appeal no. 05/99; 5 Month programme extension until October 15, 1999 situation report no. 5 period covered: 20 July - 25 August 1999 The Russian Far Northeast programme, launched on 8 February to assist 82,000 beneficiaries in the rural regions of Chukotka, Kamchatka, including Koryak okrug and Magadan, is in the final stages of implementation. The intended quantity of family food parcels was produced in Petropavlovsk-Kamchatsky and Magadan, and distribution is ongoing in all four regions covered by the Appeal. Hygiene kits have also been procured for all the regions and have already been sent to Magadan for distribution. Adverse weather conditions are making air transport difficult and causing logistical constraints. The context The steady erosion of living standards and rise in unemployment associated with a decade of diffi- cult market transition and poor harvests in Russia has taken a high toll in terms of living conditions and brought with it economic inequality and heightened social instability which has been particu- larly devastating for the population of the Far North-eastern remote regions of Chukotka, Kamchatka, including Koryak okrug, and Magadan. Geographic isolation (air transport and dog sleds are the only ways to reach some remote polar areas for many months of the year) combbined with a harsh climate (with temperatures reaching -50 C during long winter months and +40 C in summer), poor infrastructure, a lack of economic diver- sity, the high cost of transport, the over-dependance on imports, and the loss of subsidies have all compounded the regions’ problems.
