UNDP provides $100,000 aid to flood-stricken Guyana

UNDP is providing US$100,000 in response to a government appeal for humanitarian assistance such as food, boats, power generators and water pumps.

Heavy rains in the last four weeks have flooded two-thirds of Georgetown, the capital, affecting 120,000 people. A joint UN team, including UNDP, will assess relief needs.
