<p>The FCDO is a significant contributor to global humanitarian pooled funds which
are activated to respond to a humanitarian crisis such as those caused by El Nino.
This includes the UN Crisis Emergency Response Fund (CERF), Red Cross Disaster Relief
Emergency Fund (DREF) and the NGO Start Fund. Since June 2023, the Start Fund has
provided £750,000 across the region to support responses to water, health and food
security impacts of drought, particularly in Venezuela, Guatemala and Colombia, with
these responses targeting around 25,000 people.</p>
