    The New Humanitarian provides excellent coverage of humanitarian needs worldwide. They used to be called IrinNews and IrinPlus news.

    I'm submitting this because it shows that climate change has been severely affecting some regions for many years, and that there are complex interactions between different disasters (wide spread poverty, HIV/AIDs, climate change) that can leave some regions in especially vulnerable situations.

    This article used to have a photoslideshow called "Too Poor to Farm", and unfortunately that doesn't seem to still be available. (I can't find it in Archive either). That's a shame, because it was very good.
