    August 13, 2002
    Posted to the web August 13, 2002 Rome WFP's emergency operation on Cape Verde is still underfunded, more than a month after the Agency appealed for US$ 1.2 million to help the most vulnerable of 30,000 islanders threatened by hunger. To date, WFP has received just 50 percent of its total food needs for the tiny Atlantic Ocean island nation. "Hunger is rapidly increasing amid deteriorating living conditions in Cape Verde," said Sonsoles Ruedas, WFP's representative in Praia. WFP launched its appeal after the Cape Verde government made its first request for emergency food aid in over 20 years. Historically, a food insecure country which only produces 10 percent of its population's needs, Cape Verde's harvest this year witnessed a 23 percent drop in production on 2001. As a result, food shortages have hit six of Cape Verde's total 10 islands, in particular the two largest and most populous islands of Santiago and Santo Antao. SELLING SAND Many people, mostly women, have resorted to selling sand, a practice which is environmentally unsustainable and has already seriously damaged most of the local beaches and allowed saline water to infiltrate once fertile land.
