The United Nations in Iran presented its response plan for the floods to the government and the international community in a meeting held at the Ministry of Interior.

Today, the United Nations in Iran presented its response plan for the floods to the government and the international community in a meeting held at the Ministry of Interior.

Speaking at the event, Ms. Ugochi Daniels, the UN Resident Coordinator in Iran said: "The “UN response plan” is targeting 115,000 of the people most affected by the floods in four provinces. I must emphasize, that the response plan is a very small targeted portion of the overall recovery effort".

"The response plan is a snapshot of needs at this particular point in time, based on the information we have; it will remain as a living document. We will continue to revise the budget and update the plan through the sectors in coordination with the line ministries in response to updated information" Ms. Daniels added.
