DFID is investing significantly to tackle migration issues and help refugees have a long-term life in Ethiopia (host to the second largest refugee population in Africa), while reducing incentives for onward migration to Europe and diminishing the influence of criminal gangs and people smugglers. And DFID has played a leading role in the response to ongoing severe drought in Ethiopia and the Horn of Africa, where our humanitarian funding will support over 1.2 million people with emergency food rations, give 100,000 people improved access to water and sanitation, and help 500,000 pastoralists with emergency livestock support to prevent them falling into destitution.<\/p>"}
