Headline Coping with Disaster: Crisis in Kampuchea

Caption Description In the rate 1970s war and civil strife had devastating effects on Kampuchea, causing hundreds of thousands of people to flee their homes and seek food and refuge in neighbouring Thailand. UN relief agencies and cooperating independent groups responded to the crisis by helping to establish refugee camps along the border and taking in food, medical supplies to appeals by Secretary-General Kurt Waldheim, donated over $200 million in 1980 alone to fund these efforts.
Many camp shelters are less than adequate, consisting of little more than canvas tarps strung over poles. Some camps contain between 25,000 and 30,00 refugees.
