UNFPA Appeal for Türkiye Earthquake Response

On 6 February, two big earthquakes with 7.8 and 7.6 magnitudes, respectively, hit areas of Türkiye and neighbouring countries. The earthquakes caused mass destruction of residential and public buildings, including hospitals, and significant loss of life. UNFPA requests long-term flexible funding to respond to the needs of women and girls. Most urgently UNFPA needs funding to continue providing essential dignity, maternity and RH commodities, coordination of RH and GBV services, and deploying trained personnel to deliver life-saving SRH and GBV services. Working together with the Government of Türkiye, and international and national civil society organizations, UNFPA requires funding to continue its emergency response to support those affected by the earthquake.
