World Disasters Report 2006:

Which people are missing out on humanitarian aid because no journalists report on them, no donors are interested in them, no agencies have assessed their needs, or because their governments ignore them?

The 2006 World Disasters Report ventures into the shadows lying behind the more publicized disasters of 2005-2006. Combining first-hand reporting from the field with critical analysis of aid flows and donor preferences, the report calls on aid organizations, journalists, governments, and scholars to work together to address the causes and symptoms of neglected humanitarian crises.

Published annually since 1993, the World Disasters Report compiles the latest trends, facts, and analysis relevant to contemporary crises—whether "natural" or human-made, quick-onset or chronic.
