New post hurricane Matthew report regarding the UNFPA's humanitarian response in Haiti
After outlining the post-hurricane context of Matthew in Haiti, this new humanitarian report summarizes UNFPA's interventions in the affected departments, particularly for women, girls and adolescents. Concerning sexual and reproductive health, the interventions were possible through the presence of emergency reproductive health kits and additional medical equipment that were purchased and delivered to the health facilities in the affected departments, in order to meet the significant demand experienced by mobile clinics. In addition, midwives were rapidly deployed to pregnant women and newborns in Grand'Anse and Nippes to help save lives.
