“The needs are, of course, tremendous. We know that it's women and girls that are always the most affected as we know, in this kind of humanitarian situation. And that's, of course, what's happening here. So, UNFPA’s focus is of course, on this particular population, and even more, onto one sector really, amongst women and girls who are most vulnerable. So, I'm referring to migrants, refugees, to people with disabilities, to people who live in a situation of poverty, etcetera.”

And we know that this kind of humanitarian situation is going to increase the risk and in the number of victims, and we know that many of those services have been strongly affected and destroyed in some cases. So, we are also working to ensure that these kinds of services are going to be to be functioning.”

STORYLINE
The United Nations Population Fund (UNFPA) Regional Director for Eastern Europe and Central Asia, Florence Bauer today (16 Feb) said the needs in earthquake affected areas in Türkiye are, “tremendous,” and noted that “it's women and girls that are always the most affected.”
Talking to reporters in New York via video teleconference (VTC) from Türkiye, Bower said, “UNFPA’s focus is of course, on this particular population, and even more, onto one sector really, amongst women and girls who are most vulnerable. So, I'm referring to migrants, refugees, to people with disabilities, to people who live in a situation of poverty, etcetera.”
The UNFPA official said, “there are 160,000 pregnant women, so we can assess 18,000 are going to give birth the next month, and of course, they continue to give birth despite the terrible situation, they even give birth earlier than planned for many of them.”
UNFPA, she said, is providing supplies “to the different maternities that have been damaged.”
The agency, Bauer said, is also focused on gender-based violence, as in “this kind of humanitarian situation is going to increase the risk and in the number of victims, and we know that many of those services have been strongly affected and destroyed in some cases.”
She said, “we are also working to ensure that these kinds of services are going to be to be functioning.”
On 6 February, two big earthquakes with 7.8 and 7.6 magnitudes, respectively, hit areas of Türkiye and Syria.
UNFPA was immediately on the ground assessing the impact and preparing to support the emergency response in coordination with authorities and partners.
Thousands of buildings, including UNFPA-supported safe spaces for women and girls, were severely damaged or destroyed.
UNFPA’s urgent priority is to restore services that are crucial to the health and well-being of women and girls.
